Source must read through restraint, an unoccupied threshold, and non-possession—not supreme scale, omnipotent glow, deity throne, or instant resolution. Unresolved ontology candidate — locked repo canon names Source as Shinkami's Godbeast, while the creator proposal replaces a tenth creature with the relational convergence silhouette of all nine Godbeasts plus the Arc. The local Source record grounds meta-consciousness, all-element embodiment, Source connection, and participation rather than possession, but leaves the physical form canon-pending. The composition must show two sovereign expressions of one Gate in reciprocal consent.",
