# Narrative Composition

> *How stories happen: the Compositor as narrative-composer cleaved from equilibrium-seeker GM; cyclic forward-prop / back-write loop where per-player perspectives ascend and canonical narrative descends; catalogue + tools as typed contract; the Compositor as a fractal/recursive primitive at three tiers (zone-event, district-event, world-event); world-server / district-server generation as the same Compositor primitive applied at design-time (init-function for canon-rows); reflexive Dream-process at every layer with hand-authored reward-guardrails encoding the designers' ethical stance.*
>
> ***Status: skeleton — content migration scheduled for commit 2 of the split-into-domains operation. Architecture content currently lives in `architecture-broad.md` and will land here next.***
>
> *Companion to: `architecture-broad.md` (executive summary + global meta-lists), `runtime-engine/architecture.md` (lemniscate emits typed perspective-summaries that feed the Compositor), `inference-and-memory/architecture.md` (back-writes land in primary.sqlite via UID-keyed routing), `scale-and-transport/architecture.md` (Compositor instances are stateless workers; transport carries canon-fragments).*

## Sections that will land here
