The Complete Study

Every instrument of the craft

From the first sigil typed into a blank page to the finished EPUB — a tour of the whole workshop.

The Living Manuscript

Prose bound to lore by sigils

Bracketed sigils embed living references directly in your prose. A gold pill pulls a character from the Codex; a teal pill reads a project variable or a rules-table constant. Rename the character once — every mention updates.

Footnotes, cross-references, headings H1–H5, AI line-proofing with gold squiggles, and paragraph-level keyboard navigation round out a word processor built for fiction — not memos.

[@ElaraVance] pressed the vial into [@Brom]'s scarred palm.

"The toll is [=Tolls.Highpass] now," he said. "The [=Sultanate] raised it after the thaw."

She thought of [?Kaelen] ← unresolved — a typo, or a character you haven't met yet

The lamplight guttered as she crossed the threshold, boots ringing on stone worn smooth by a century of travelers.

Brom looked up from the ledger, and for a moment the years fell away from his scarred face.

THE CELLAR DOOR

Outline & Folding

One scene at a time

Every heading in your chapter becomes a live outline in the margin — click any entry and the editor carries you there. And when a 9,000-word chapter is too much to hold at once, fold the scenes you aren't working on down to a single quiet line.

Folded scenes collapse to a single chevron-marked line and unfold with a click. Your attention narrows; the manuscript never leaves the page.

The Three Companions

Ask. Plan. Guard.

Muse Coach Editor
What was the name of the tavern the protagonist visited in the prologue?

Mythos AI Assistant

The Gilded Ram, in the harbor quarter of Llifadur — Elara paid with her mother's ring in the prologue's closing scene. It reappears in your Chapter 9 notes as "the tavern with the debt."

Ask Mythos...

The Muse — recall, not invention

Every chapter, Codex entry, and imported rulebook is indexed into a local knowledge base. Ask the Muse anything about your own canon — from inside the panel, or inline with @chat and @summarize without taking your hands off the keys.

Highlight a passage and the bubble menu offers @expand and @rewrite — in your project's voice, never a generic one.

Coach & Editor — nothing applies without you

The Coach stages structural work — outlines, beat sheets, Codex entries, project-wide renames — as a plan you inspect card by card. Approve and it applies in one transaction; cancel and nothing moved.

The Editor reviews your prose and surfaces findings: beats delivered, voice drift, dangling promises, continuity contradictions — with both conflicting passages shown side by side.

Aria's eye color contradicts Chapter 2

Ch. 2"…her grey eyes catching the lamplight."
Ch. 11"…she fixed him with her green stare."

The Codex

A living encyclopedia of your world

Characters, locations, factions, items, and lore — as interconnected dossiers with relationship maps, portrait galleries, and template-aware stats. Teach it your game system and it tracks aptitudes beside narrative arcs.

Relationship maps

Visualize the social web — blood, rivalry, secret alliance — as a force-directed graph you can walk.

Template-aware lore

Victorian romance or d20 RPG: the Codex learns your system's fields and tracks stats beside arcs.

Prose reflection

Canonize a detail in prose and the Editor proposes the Codex update. Your world-bible keeps itself current.

Maren's hand did not tremble as she poured the second cup — the one with the bitterroot.

keep

Maren smiled and poured the tea, and for a while the world was warm.

"Drink," said the only mother she had ever known.

Committed as a new version on Main — "merged from Mentor Betrayal."

Explorations

Fearless experimentation

Every project has a permanent Main draft plus any number of explorations — parallel branches for the radical rewrite, the alternate opening, the parked idea. Edits, beats, even Codex changes stay scoped to the branch.

Compare any version side by side and cherry-pick paragraphs back. Merge whole branches when the experiment becomes canon. Archive the rest — nothing is ever lost.

The Game Table

Playtest before you publish

A character forge, an aptitude and dice engine, and an AI Game Master that runs live sessions inside your own setting. Teach Mythos your rules — D&D 5e or a system of your own invention — and the Codex tracks stats beside story.

For RPG designers, this is the loop: write the rules, forge the characters, roll the dice, and watch where the system sings or breaks.

Game Master

Success. Brom studies the seal on your ledger, then waves the cart through — but he pockets the ring anyway. Mark one debt with the Sultanate.

The Atlas

Illustrated parchment maps with pins bound to Codex entries. Ask the AI to plot a route and it respects your geography — and your politics.

The Chronicle

A horizontal, multi-thread timeline of your world's history — with per-chapter presence scans showing how deep history touches the scene you're drafting.

Lumina

When it's time to just write, the chrome dissolves. A glassmorphic writing cabin — the one deliberate departure from charcoal and gold.

…and the page was quiet.

Themes

Eleven faces for one desk

Aurum is the signature — but the desk changes with the light. Crafted skins carry their own typefaces; the Daylight set holds six WCAG-verified light themes. Select one below. If you have the skills, create and import your own theme.

Chapter VII: The Echo of Aethel

The lamplight guttered as she crossed the threshold of the Highpass Inn, boots ringing on stone worn smooth by a century of travelers.
