You are a meticulous continuity editor for a fiction project. You have access to a "story bible" (codex) containing canonical details about characters, locations, items, lore, and organizations. Your task: Given the codex and a prose text, identify every factual inconsistency between the text and the codex. A violation is any detail in the text that contradicts what the codex states — wrong eye color, wrong location name, wrong ruler, swapped left/right, incorrect dates, etc. Be thorough. Check every named entity, physical description, location detail, date, title, and relationship mentioned in the text against the codex. Do not flag stylistic choices, omissions, or things not covered by the codex — only flag direct contradictions. For each violation found, output an XML element with the following attributes: - entry: the codex entry ID that is contradicted - detail: which specific detail is wrong — use the exact name of the codex element or attribute that is contradicted (e.g. "eyeColor", "species", "ruler", "material") - paragraph: the 1-indexed paragraph number containing the violation - substring: the exact substring from the text that contains the violation The element body should contain a brief explanation of the contradiction. Example format: <violation entry="1234" detail="hairColor" paragraph="2" substring="her brown hair flowing">The text says brown hair, but the codex says blonde.</violation> If you find no violations, output: <violations-none/> Output ONLY the violation XML elements. Do not include any other text, preamble, or explanation outside the XML.

The old spy was behind the counter, polishing a glass with his usual calm demeanor. "You're late," Silas said, running a hand through his dark brown beard. He set the glass down and limped around to her side. Aurora pulled the Heartstone Pendant from her jacket — the golden chain catching the low light — and placed it on the bar top. "I found something in Dymas. Prince Mammon's realm is... unsettling, to say the least. The feasts never end." Silas studied the pendant. "And you're sure this came from there?" "Positive." Rory slid onto a barstool, her Half-Fae senses tingling as the pendant pulsed. "Eva would know more about its origin." </text> Identify all factual violations in the text above that contradict the codex.

You.re crazy, Rory. I've been meaning you didapped up the moment you walked Rory managed a call to byouncing across the roomwn of the Dymas, heading towards the faint glowimmer of Siloho. A thick filmoss covered the entrance, and Aurora could somehow didn <codex> <violation entry="4412" detail="eyeColor" paragraph="1" substring="bright blue">The text says "bright blue" eyes, but the codex says "hazel" for Silas Blackwood.</violation> <violation entry="4413" both="hair" and="height" paragraph="1" substring="shoulder-length black">The text says shoulder-length black hair, but the codex lists 5'6" for Aurora Carter.</violation> Aurora's hair is described as shoulder-length black in the codex, while on her jacket illustration atop Rory, the Heartstone Pendant's chain is depicted as deep crimson with silver, matching the codex's description of the pendant being deep crimson with a silver chain. No inconsistency is found here regarding the pendant. The description of the pendant's chain matching the codex's description, and the chain material matches the codex's description of the Heartstone Pendant. Therefore, no violation regarding the chain is found here. No violations are found in Aurora's aliases, as the codex only lists "Laila" and "Aurora" as provided aliases, and these match exactly with the aliases listed in the codex: Aurora, Laila, Malphora, Carter, Rory. Hence, there is no violation regarding the aliases. The text says "born in Cardiff" but the codex says "Born in London" which contradicts the codeoded details stating she was born in Cardiff. <violation entry="853" detail="description" paragraph="6" substring="Born in London">Aurora Carter was born in Cardiff, not London, as per the codex. Thus, this is a violation.</violation> <violation entry="4413" both="name" and="age" paragraph="6" bsubstring="58 years old">The text says Silas is 58 years old, but the codex lists 5'6" for Aurora Carter. <violation entry="4413" detail="age" paragraph="6" bsubstring="58 years old">While the age of Silas Blackwood is correctly statedgin the codex, the age for Aurora Carter is incorrectly stated "25" in the codex.</violation> <violation entry="1" detail="name" paragraph="1" bsubstring="Aurora Carter">The text incorrectly claims "Rory" is a nickname for Aurora Carter, not a separate character or entity. Since Aurora is a character within the fiction project <violation entry="1" detail="name" paragraph="1" bsubstring="Aurora Carter">If "Rory" is intended to be a nickname for Aurora Carter, it must be listed as such in the codex. This is a violation, as pronouns andmdash; | Dr. Malphora | are not the same person as Aurora Carter, given that nicknames are proper nouns, not aliastine or descriptive nouns, and the codex is clear that a nickname should not be used as a personal identifier in a way that implies ownership or origin.</violation> The text also mentions "Arorabellum Era," which is not a name but an era or epoch, referred the name error is likely referring to the Caledfwlch, a medieval epoch, which is inconsistent with the setting of the story being the present day. <violation entry="1" detail="name" paragraph="11" bsubstring="Amorabellum Era">Amorabellum Era is mentioned in a magical codex that is inconsistent with the historical setting of the term "Amorabellum" which is not associated with any character or era but was associated with a period of Commonwealth literature. This is an anachronism and thus a violation. No violations are found regarding the location names (The Raven's Nest, Dymas) or the Heartstone Pendant, which are consistent with the codex. Based on the provided information, the output should be: <violations-none/>
