STANDING ORDER v1.0: the rewrite

The agents now cross into Bellhouse on a diplomatic brief to bring its people
home. A thousand people (118 of the 1974 intake, 881 born below) run the Seat
like a 1970s council, kept down by ninety-day renewals from "Centre", which
is Mr Smith, planted in THROUGH TRAIN. His experiment is procedural and
quiet: a bulletin response, a crèche lullaby, a shared dream, the children's
drawings, a steered establishment. Act One is the briefing, the moor and the
crossing into Enquiries. Act Two is the site, and the detention the Controller
orders on Centre's circular, measured and cited. Act Three is Annex D: at a
thousand the Seat broadcasts an Address that enrols whoever hears it, and the
table must silence it before or while they release the Seat under clause 4.

Same site, people and plates. Two cast actors (the wardens, Teague). New
handouts SO-H05 (Centre's circular) and SO-H06 (terms of engagement). The
section map's key is relabelled (issue 2). Status is honest: v0.7's five desk
passes tested a different plot, and this needs its own.
