This is a canon-consistency audit of a fantasy novel draft (an "AI-generated LitRPG"). I need a terse, complete factual digest of these six scenes — not a summary of prose or theme, a raw extraction of every checkable fact, for cross-referencing against canon files and earlier scenes. For each scene, list, with direct quotes and scene number/filename:

  1. Every date, day number, time of day, or duration mentioned (e.g. "Day 29", "13 Harvestmonth", "midnight", "thirty days").
  2. Every numeric count: roster numbers, headcounts, distances, sums of money, quantities of anything, list lengths (e.g. "nine steadings", leakage counts).
  3. Every mention of the Seal of the Loom / [Seal of the Loom] ability, its cooldown, whether it is used or available.
  4. Every mention of healing, magical or otherwise (or its notable absence in an injury scene).
  5. Every mention of a redacted (creature) and any water-related refusal or reaction to it, and who if anyone comments on it.
  6. Every mention of a "redacted" or blessing cast on livestock, especially any Fenholt beast, and who does it and how.
  7. Every place the story's "engine" (improbability/fate engine tied to Peri's Seal/destiny) is described as acting, especially any scene near a "mouth" (cave mouth, gate, dungeon mouth, etc.) — quote exactly.
  8. Any specific back-references to: a list of nine steadings, roster numbers, "leakage" counts, what Edwin said on a causeway, what was taught about the redacted, an alehouse keeper's dialogue, a character named Sennet's dialogue.
  9. Any other new fact these scenes establish that reads like new worldbuilding (place names, character names, numbers, mechanics) not obviously drawn from earlier chapters.

Be exhaustive and literal — quote lines rather than paraphrasing wherever a number, date, or specific claim is involved. Organize by scene number. This is pure extraction; do not evaluate consistency, that's handled elsewhere. Keep your report as dense as possible; it will be read by another agent doing the actual comparison.
