Saga parts chapter summaries and bridge

Active source

Chapter 103, Maya and Carina 1

Chapter job: Introduce Maya and Carina through their own world before the camp absorbs them.

Physical frame: Present-tense frame near encounter, then return to Day Zero / early apocalypse through their perspective.

Emotional spine: They are not skills arriving. They are women with a relationship, fear, work, and losses.

Living-world realism: Their entrance must pass through partial information, people, blocked routes, failed rescue logic, fire / medical danger, and choices about who to help.

Carry forward: Chapter 104 continues their road toward the lake.

Must preserve: Their Day Zero ages must be locked before writing. No instant camp knowledge.
