Story Map¶
This flagship metacognitive mission has Sinistrus immerse the Recentii in a construct of Plato's Cave, which they experience firsthand as prisoners who are freed and explore. Across two sub-episodes they must then form, research, and present an argument about whether learning Roman culture can save civilization, with the promised signum as their reward. (Note: Episode 8 has only two sub-episodes by design.)
How to read the maps
Each box is one scene (one static story page). Green = standard scene · Blue = convergence / key node · Pink = fail / redirect (dashed pink arrows loop the reader back) · Yellow = special or graded gate · Grey = meta / optional. Solid arrows are forward story choices; labels on arrows paraphrase the choice.
