### Required continuity and scene anchors * Keep the chapter as lived scene work, not report-language. * Track water, food, medicine, hygiene, light, sleep, sound, weapons, vehicles, children, animals, weather, and living-person road pressure. * Keep Steve present only through signs, jacket, route code, grief, private
### Forbidden / failure points * No radio proof, no new Steve information, no Avalance/Waverider, no Anya, no Mike or Dustin physically in Part 2. * Do not use narrator future-summary or tell the reader what the moment will mean later. * Do not let logistics erase the four central couples.
### Status Approved chapter contract, ready for later skeleton/prose expansion.
### Time / place / weather Next clear daylight, shelter yard, lateMonth20.
### POV / focus Scene-level focal characters: Nancy and Raven. Keep each scene within its focal character's available perceptions and knowledge.
### Required beats and body / logistics, concrete execution Nancy compares two mapped routes against children, water and signs. Raven inspects the aging Barbara truck and identifies a worsening brake/axle burden that their better vehicles make unnecessary. Strip every useful item and redistribute it across the Vausema
### Emotional engine Leaving becomes an act of care, not simply another defeat.
### Physical cast Lexa, Clarke, Nancy, Robin and Raven, Alex, Piper, Finn, Rachel, Emma, Regina, Theo and Henry; Scout and Beta. Restrict each scene to its task group. No Avalance, Anya, Hawkins return or later entrants.
### Knowledge map, execution boundary Core knowledge remains the earlier account that Steve survived the store, not proof of his current survival or location. Signs continue without an answer; no radio payoff, no knowledge of Steve with Mike/Dustin or Anya. Newcomers learn only what is said or witnessed.

### Injuries Preserve the009 left-thigh wound in028 and early road weeks; later ordinary function follows elapsed healing, not a reset in029. Finn's037 leg injury is non-bite, with assisted travel and restricted work in038–039. Thea dies from childbirth complications in031. No new lasting injury is added by these exec
### Couples / relationships Clexa: recognition and fear after the kiss; Ronance: lovers carrying Steve as family, never a triangle; Vauseman: existing messy, intimate marriage before parenthood; SwanQueen: a marriage without the word before contact; Finchel: young warmth and grief. Use only the couples actually presen
### Canon locks Preserve the existing approved chapter purpose and entry sequence. No radio payoff before065; Steve evidence is not current proof. Theo is Alex/Piper's son; Anya and Avalance are absent. SwanQueen have no magic. The convoy name is earned in059.

### Exit point Three checked vehicles, actual seats and cargo, named drivers and a finite route plan.
## Chapter 051, The First Convoy That Sounded Like a Convoy
### Approved contract status Approved in the Part 2 pre-writing pass after source-merging the old `part2_chapter_logic_map.md` with the newer block contracts. This entry replaces older thinner planning for this chapter.

The group sounds like a convoy before it has earned the word: spacing, hand signals, stops, children, animals, Steve signs, maps, tools, weight, fuel, and emergency access. Robin's perception line is active: she may hear a diff
