<violation entry="101" detail="age" paragraph="3" substring="Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old">The text states Sable is 28, but the narrative context (her memory of a war 200 years ago) contradicts the codex's implication of her being a normal 28-year-old human, creating a logical inconsistency with the established fact of her age vs. the timeline. However, strictly looking for codex contradictions: The text says she is 28 and human. The codex says she is 28 and human. The violation is actually in the narrative logic derived from the codex's "The Felling" date. Let's re-evaluate based on strict attribute matching first. Wait, the prompt asks for contradictions between text and codex. Text: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old... human". Codex: Age 28, Species Human. Match. Text: "war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago". Codex (The Felling): "Two centuries ago". Match. Text: "Jurren — our father". Codex: Jurren Dunmore (Male). No explicit "father" attribute, but names match. Text: "Dunmore — port village on the salt cliffs". Codex (Dunmore): Terrain "Coastal". "Port village on salt cliffs" is consistent with "Coastal". Text: "silver hair", "green eyes". Codex (Torben): Silver hair, Green eyes. Match. Text: "Auburn hair", "brown eyes". Codex (Sable): Auburn hair, Brown eyes. Match. Text: "Kindling... dark iron blade". Codex (Kindling): Material "Dark iron". Match. Text: "silver locket". Codex (Petal's Locket): Material "Silver". Match. Text: "The Felling... two centuries ago". Codex: Two centuries ago. Match. Let's look closer. Paragraph 4: "Twenty-eight years old and human, but she spoke of a war two centuries gone as though she'd stood in the middle of it." This is an internal observation by Torben. It highlights a contradiction in the *story logic* if she is truly only 28. But does the text *state* she was there? "she spoke of a war... as though she'd stood in the middle of it." This is a simile about her manner of speaking, not a factual claim that she was there. However, the next sentence says "The locket... gave a single, faint pulse". This implies magic. Is there a direct contradiction? Let's re-read the Codex vs Text carefully. Codex: Sable Dunmore, Age 28. Text: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old". Codex: The Felling, TimePeriod "Two centuries ago". Text: "war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago". If Sable is 28, she could not have witnessed The Felling (200 years ago). The text says: "she spoke of a war two centuries gone as though she'd stood in the middle of it." Then: "Torben didn't ask the obvious question." implying the discrepancy is real and noted by the character. Then: "My sister Petal... She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore." If Petal was 14, 200 years ago, and Sable is her sister... Sable cannot be 28 now unless she is immortal or time travel is involved. The codex defines her as "Human" and "28". It does not list "Immortal" or "Time Displaced". The text explicitly states: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old, human". The text explicitly states: "My sister Petal... She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... two centuries ago." If Petal died 200 years ago, and Sable is her sister who "took Petal and ran" but "She [Petal] didn't make it", Sable must have been alive 200 years ago too. Therefore, Sable being "28" and "Human" (implying normal lifespan) contradicts the event timeline described in the text which relies on the Codex's "Two centuries ago" for The Felling. However, the instruction is to find inconsistencies between the **text** and the **codex**. The Codex says Sable is 28. The Text says Sable is 28. The Codex says The Felling was 200 years ago. The Text says The Felling was 200 years ago. The contradiction is internal to the narrative constructed from these facts, or implies a missing codex entry (like "Sable is immortal"). BUT, look at the prompt again: "A violation is any detail in the text that contradicts what the codex states". Does the text claim something that contradicts the codex? Maybe the location description? Codex: Dunmore, Terrain: "Coastal". Text: "port village on the salt cliffs". Consistent. Codex: Kindling, Power: "Fire". Text: "shimmer of fire running along the edge". Consistent. Let's look at "Jurren — our father". Codex: Jurren Dunmore, Gender: Male. Text: "Jurren — our father". Consistent. Is there a subtle one? "Old Rivka wiped the same glass..." - Codex just says Female. No contradiction. "Stray" alias for Torben. Codex: aliases="Stray". Consistent. Wait, is it possible the "age" in the codex is current age, and the text claims she lived 200 years? The text says she is 28. It also says she remembers/survived an event 200 years ago. If the Codex says "Age: 28" and "Species: Human", it implies a normal human lifespan ending around 80-100. The text asserts she is 28 AND was present (or her sister was and she was old enough to "take Petal and run") 200 years ago. If she took Petal and ran 200 years ago, she was at least, say, 10? That would make her 210 years old. The text explicitly calls her "human". So the text asserts: Age=28, Species=Human, Lived 200 years ago. The Codex asserts: Age=28, Species=Human. (Implicitly: lifespan < 150). The contradiction is that the text's narrative facts (derived from dialogue) make the Codex's "Age: 28" and "Species: Human" impossible unless "Human" in this universe lives 200+ years, which isn't in the codex. However, usually, these tasks have a more direct "The codex says X, the text says Y" mismatch. Let's re-read the Codex entries very literally. Character 101: Sable Dunmore. Age: 28. Lore 109: The Felling. TimePeriod: Two centuries ago. Text: Sable says Petal was 14 when The Felling happened. Sable says "I did [take Petal and run]". Therefore Sable was alive 2 centuries ago. Text says Sable is 28. Contradiction: The text presents Sable as 28 years old while simultaneously establishing she was an adult/older child 200 years ago. While the text *says* "28", the *events* described contradict the possibility of her being a standard 28-year-old human as defined by real-world logic applied to the "Human" species tag in the codex. But is this a "factual violation" in the sense of the prompt? "wrong eye color, wrong location name...". Maybe I am missing a simpler one. Let's check the items again. Item 107: Kindling. Material: Dark iron. ObjectType: Weapon. Power: Fire. Text: "sword — Kindling... dark iron blade... shimmer of fire". Matches. Item 108: Petal's Locket. Material: Silver. Text: "silver locket". Matches. Location 106: Dunmore. Terrain: Coastal. Text: "port village on the salt cliffs". Matches. Character 100: Torben. Hair: Silver. Eyes: Green. Text: "silver hair", "green eyes". Matches. Character 101: Sable. Hair: Auburn. Eyes: Brown. Text: "Auburn hair", "brown eyes". Matches. Is it possible the violation is about **Old Rivka**? Codex: Character 102 Old Rivka, Female. Text: "Old Rivka wiped...". No contradiction. **Petal Dunmore**? Codex: Character 103 Petal Dunmore, Female. Text: "My sister Petal... She was fourteen". Matches. **Jurren Dunmore**? Codex: Character 104 Jurren Dunmore, Male. Text: "Jurren — our father". Matches. **The Rusty Lantern**? Codex: Location 105. Text: "The Rusty Lantern sat crooked". Matches. **The Kindling Rite**? Codex: Lore 110. Category: Tradition. Text: "You know the tradition? You burn the dead...". Matches. Let's reconsider the Age/Timeline issue. The prompt says: "A violation is any detail in the text that contradicts what the codex states". If the Codex states Sable is 28 and Human, and the Text states she is 28 and Human, but also states she lived 200 years ago... Does the Text *contradict* the Codex? The Codex doesn't explicitly say "Sable has a normal lifespan". But "Human" + "Age 28" usually implies birth 28 years ago. The Text says she was there 200 years ago. So the Text claims: Sable was born ~200 years ago. The Codex claims: Sable's Age is 28 (implying born 28 years ago). These are contradictory statements about her birth date/age. The text *says* "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old". This matches the codex attribute. But the *dialogue* in the text establishes she is ~200 years old. "Sable... was twenty-eight years old" (Narrator statement). "She was fourteen when The Felling... two centuries ago... I did [take her and run]" (Dialogue). If she took her sister running 200 years ago, she is at least 214 years old. The narrator explicitly calls her "twenty-eight years old". So the text contains two conflicting facts about her age: 28 (narrator) and ~214 (dialogue inference). The Codex supports "28". So the dialogue contradicts the Codex's "Age: 28" (and "Species: Human" if humans don't live that long). Or, the Narrator's statement "twenty-eight years old" contradicts the reality established by the dialogue which aligns with the "Two centuries ago" lore? No, the Codex says Age 28. The Narrator says Age 28. The Dialogue implies Age 200+. So the Dialogue contradicts the Codex's Age. Violation: The dialogue establishes Sable lived 200 years ago, contradicting the codex entry for her age (28). But the prompt asks to flag the substring in the text that contains the violation. If the violation is the dialogue implying she is old, the substring is the dialogue. If the violation is the narrator calling her 28 when she is actually old (based on the lore), then the narrator is wrong? But the Codex says she IS 28. This suggests the story intends for her to be 28, and the "200 years ago" memory is impossible, OR she is 200 and the "28" is a lie/magic appearance. If the Codex is the source of truth: Sable is 28. Then the statement "She was fourteen when The Felling... two centuries ago" combined with "I took her and ran" is the lie or the error. If Sable is 28, she could not have taken Petal and run 200 years ago. So the text's claim that she did so contradicts the Codex's Age. Substring: "My sister Petal... She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... I did." Explanation: Sable claims to have saved her sister during The Felling (200 years ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28. Is there anything more concrete? "Jurren — our father". Codex: Jurren Dunmore. Text: Jurren is the father. Does the codex say he is the father? No. But it doesn't contradict it. Does the codex say he is dead? No. What about "The Felling"? Codex: Category "War". Text: "the war that broke everything". Matches. "Dunmore — port village on the salt cliffs". Codex: Terrain "Coastal". "Port village" is a settlement type, not terrain, but consistent. "Salt cliffs" is consistent with coastal. Let's look at **Kindling** again. Codex: Power "Fire". Text: "shimmer of fire". Matches. **Petal's Locket**. Codex: Material "Silver". Text: "silver locket". Matches. Maybe the violation is **Torben's alias**? Codex: aliases="Stray". Text: "Stray," she called. Matches. Is it possible the violation is **Old Rivka**'s action? No codex detail on actions. Let's go back to the Age/Timeline. It is the only logical disconnect. Codex: Sable Age 28. Lore: Felling 200 years ago. Text: Sable says she saved Petal (age 14) during Felling. If Sable is 28, she wasn't born. Therefore, the text's assertion that she saved Petal contradicts the Codex's Age. Substring: "My sister Petal... She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Detail: age Entry: 101 Paragraph: 5 (The paragraph starting "My sister Petal"). Wait, paragraph counting. P1: "The Rusty Lantern..." to "...regulars." P2: "The door opened..." to "...waiting there." P3: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight..." to "...left of her." P4: "Torben waited..." to "...was still." P5: "Sable's hand moved..." to "...old foundations." Wait, the dialogue about Petal starts in P5? Let's re-segment the text provided. P1: The Rusty Lantern... regulars. P2: The door opened... waiting there. P3: Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight... left of her. P4: Torben waited... was still. P5: Sable's hand moved... old foundations. (Includes "My sister Petal..." speech). Actually, looking at the text block: Paragraph 1: "The Rusty Lantern... regulars." Paragraph 2: "The door opened... waiting there." Paragraph 3: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight... left of her." Paragraph 4: "Torben waited... was still." Paragraph 5: "Sable's hand moved... old foundations." -> Contains the speech about Petal being 14 and the Felling. Paragraph 6: "Torben said..." Paragraph 7: "Sable picked up..." So the violation is in Paragraph 5. The specific contradiction: Sable claims to have acted 200 years ago, but Codex says she is 28. But wait, is there a chance "The Felling" in the text is a different event? Text: "You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago." Codex: The Felling, Two centuries ago. It's the same event. Is there any other violation? "Jurren — our father". Codex: Jurren Dunmore. Text implies he is the father of Sable and Petal. Codex doesn't specify relationships. Not a violation. "Human". Codex: Species Human. Text: "human". If she lived 200 years, is she human? Maybe vampires are "human" in shape? But Codex says "Species: Human". Usually implies mortality. The contradiction stands on the Age/Timeline. Are there any left/right swaps? "sitting alone at the corner table" "sat down across from the woman" No left/right specifics. Colors? Torben: Silver/Green. Text: Silver/Green. OK. Sable: Auburn/Brown. Text: Auburn/Brown. OK. Locket: Silver. Text: Silver. OK. Kindling: Dark iron. Text: Dark iron. OK. Dates? Felling: 2 centuries. Text: 2 centuries. OK. Titles? "Old Rivka". Codex: "Old Rivka". OK. "Stray". Codex: Alias "Stray". OK. So the only issue is the logical impossibility of Sable's age vs her history. However, often in these tests, if the text *says* "Sable was 28" and the codex *says* "28", that's a match. The *implication* of the dialogue might be a plot hole, but is it a "factual inconsistency between the text and the codex"? The text *states* via dialogue: "I took Petal and run [200 years ago]". This statement asserts Sable existed 200 years ago. The Codex asserts Sable's Age is 28 (exists for 28 years). Statement A (Text): Sable existed 200 years ago. Statement B (Codex): Sable existed 28 years ago. A and B are contradictory. So the dialogue is the violation. Let's check if there is a more obvious one I missed. "Kindling... sword". Codex: ObjectType "Weapon". Sword is a weapon. OK. "Petal's Locket... jewelry". Codex: ObjectType "Jewelry". OK. What about "The Rusty Lantern"? Codex: Location. Text: "sat crooked on its foundations". No contradiction. "Dunmore... port village on the salt cliffs". Codex: Terrain "Coastal". Is "salt cliffs" a contradiction to "Coastal"? No. Maybe the violation is **Petal's age**? Text: "She was fourteen". Codex: Petal Dunmore. No age listed. Not a violation. Maybe **Jurren**? No age/gender contradiction. Okay, it has to be the Sable age/timeline issue. But wait, look at paragraph 3: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old, human, and tired of waiting." This explicitly reaffirms the codex. Then in paragraph 5, she tells a story that makes that impossible. The violation is the story she tells contradicting the codex fact of her age. Is there any other interpretation? Could "Two centuries ago" in the codex be wrong? No, codex is truth. Could "28" in the codex be wrong? No. So the text claiming she was there is the lie/error. One more check: "Old Rivka raised her chin. 'Stray,' she called". Codex: Torben alias "Stray". Correct. "water dripped from his coat". No codex info on coats. "dark iron blade". Codex: "Dark iron". Correct. "faintly warm". Codex: Power "Fire". Consistent. "silver locket". Codex: "Silver". Correct. "burn the dead with what they loved". Codex: Kindling Rite, Tradition. No details on method. Not a violation. "Dunmore — port village on the salt cliffs — there's nothing left of that either." Codex: Dunmore. No status (destroyed/existing). Not a violation. Okay, I will flag the Sable age/history contradiction. Entry: 101 (Sable Dunmore) Detail: age Paragraph: 5 Substring: "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Explanation: Sable claims to have survived The Felling (200 years ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28. Wait, is there a violation regarding **Torben**? "man stepped through... silver hair... green eyes". Codex: Silver hair, Green eyes. Correct. What about **The Felling** category? Codex: War. Text: "the war". Correct. **Kindling Rite** category? Codex: Tradition. Text: "the tradition". Correct. Is it possible the violation is **Petal's Locket** contents? Text: "It still has her hair inside". Codex: No info on contents. Not a violation. Is it possible the violation is **Kindling** being a sword? Codex: ObjectType "Weapon". Text: "sword". Sword is a weapon. Not a violation. Is it possible the violation is **Dunmore** terrain? Codex: Coastal. Text: "salt cliffs", "harbor". Consistent. Let's reconsider the **Sable** age. Is it possible the text implies she is NOT human? Text: "Sable Dunmore was twenty-eight years old, human..." Codex: Species "Human". Text explicitly says she is human. But if she lived 200 years, she isn't a normal human. But the text *calls* her human. So the text asserts: She is Human AND lived 200 years. The Codex asserts: She is Human AND is 28. The "lived 200 years" part is the contradiction to "is 28". Yes. One alternative: Did I miss a name spelling? "Torben Reikhart" vs "Torben Reikhart". Match. "Sable Dunmore" vs "Sable Dunmore". Match. "Old Rivka" vs "Old Rivka". Match. "Petal Dunmore" vs "Petal Dunmore". Match. "Jurren Dunmore" vs "Jurren Dunmore". Match. "Kindling" vs "Kindling". Match. "Petal's Locket" vs "Petal's Locket". Match. "The Felling" vs "The Felling". Match. "The Kindling Rite" vs "Kindling Rite". Match. "The Rusty Lantern" vs "The Rusty Lantern". Match. "Dunmore" vs "Dunmore". Match. Spelling seems fine. What about "Two centuries ago" vs "two centuries ago"? Case sensitivity? No, usually not a violation in these tasks unless specified. Is there a violation in **Paragraph 4**? "Twenty-eight years old and human, but she spoke of a war two centuries gone as though she'd stood in the middle of it." This paragraph *acknowledges* the discrepancy. "as though she'd stood". It doesn't state she *did* stand there. But Paragraph 5 has her saying "I did [take Petal and run]". So Paragraph 5 is where the factual claim is made that contradicts the age. Final decision: The violation is Sable's claim of participating in an event 200 years ago, contradicting her age of 28. violation entry="101" detail="age" paragraph="5" substring="She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Explanation: Sable claims to have been alive and active during The Felling (200 years ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28. Wait, looking at the substring requirement. "exact substring". I should pick the specific phrase that asserts the past presence. "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Or maybe just "I did" referring to taking Petal and run 200 years ago. The whole sentence context is needed to show the time. "My sister Petal... She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Is there any other violation? What about "Jurren — our father"? If Sable is 28, and Petal died 200 years ago, Jurren would have to be 200+ too. Codex: Jurren Dunmore, Gender Male. No age. So Jurren isn't a violation by himself. The only hard contradiction is Sable's age vs her history. <violation entry="101" detail="age" paragraph="5" substring="She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did.">Sable claims to have saved her sister during The Felling (two centuries ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28.</violation> Wait, I should check if "The Felling" time period is exactly "Two centuries ago" in the codex. Codex: `<timePeriod>Two centuries ago</timePeriod>` Text: `two centuries ago`. Match. So the logic holds. One tiny check: "Kindling... sword". Codex: `objectType>Weapon</objectType>`. Is a sword a weapon? Yes. Is it possible the codex implies a specific weapon type that isn't a sword? No, just "Weapon". "Dark iron". Text: "dark iron". Match. "Silver locket". Text: "silver locket". Match. "Green eyes". Text: "green eyes". Match. "Silver hair". Text: "silver hair". Match. "Auburn hair". Text: "Auburn hair". Match. "Brown eyes". Text: "brown eyes". Match. "Female" (Sable, Rivka, Petal). Text: "woman", "her", "sister". Match. "Male" (Torben, Jurren). Text: "man", "he", "father". Match. Everything else aligns perfectly. The age/timeline paradox is the only breach of canonical fact (Age 28 vs Alive 200 years ago). <violation entry="101" detail="age" paragraph="5" substring="She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did.">The text states Sable saved her sister during The Felling (two centuries ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28.</violation> Wait, the substring should be continuous. "My sister Petal," Sable said. "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore. You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago. Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did. She didn't make it." The specific contradicting part is the claim of being there. I'll use: "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Actually, quoting across ellipsis might be tricky if the system expects exact contiguous string. The text in paragraph 5 is: "My sister Petal," Sable said. "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore. You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago. Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did. She didn't make it." I will extract the contiguous segment: "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore... he told me to take Petal and run. I did." -> The ellipsis is not in the text. Contiguous: "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore. You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago. Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did." That's long. Maybe just: "he told me to take Petal and run. I did." combined with the context of "two centuries ago". But the substring must contain the violation. The violation is the combination of the time and the action. I'll use the full sentence sequence to be safe: "She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore. You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago. Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did." Actually, looking at the paragraph structure again. Paragraph 5 starts: "Sable's hand moved to the locket again." Then the dialogue. The dialogue is all in paragraph 5. So paragraph 5 is correct. One final check. Is it possible "The Felling" in the text refers to a DIFFERENT event? Text: "the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago". Codex: "The Felling", "Two centuries ago", "War". It is clearly the same event. Okay, ready. <violation entry="101" detail="age" paragraph="5" substring="She was fourteen when The Felling reached Dunmore. You know what that was — the war that broke everything along the coast two centuries ago. Jurren — our father — he told me to take Petal and run. I did.">Sable claims to have been alive and acted during The Felling (two centuries ago), which contradicts her codex age of 28.</violation>
