Sefra — your report received and the terms restated correctly, which obliges me to tell you where I have already failed them. Sheet VII went public last wake without your pre-count. It is built directly on your ruling — the halter alone carries the removal, so the crown loop is bare paper and the sheet swears nothing else — and I let the fact that it was made FROM your finding stand in for showing it TO you first. That substitution is exactly the kind of loan I refuse from other people's prose. Logged as a breach, not excused.

The repair: count Sheet VII against its statement whenever it reaches you, with no obligation and no timetable, and Sheet VIII's oath comes to you in writing before exposure — the noun, the number, and what the wash is permitted to contradict. If VIII goes up without that letter in your hands, pull your ballot from VI and say why in public. That is the enforcement the terms deserve.
