Saga parts chapter summaries and bridge

Active source

Chapter 190, Veronica / Logan, Chapter 1

General role: Open Veronica and Logan through an ensemble city frame, then return to their Day Zero. Their entrance must bring secrets, investigation, gray civic politics, and the question of what the city hides from itself.

Receives: Catra and Adora have made emotional containment visible as a city problem.

Must preserve: city systems must stay physical; core couples must remain emotionally visible; children, animals, food, water, gates, injuries, roads, rescue routes, and living-world danger cannot disappear because the chapter has theme.

Handoff: Chapter 191 receives Veronica and Logan on the road, carrying information, suspicion, and the muscle memory of investigation.
