## What was asked

The conductor's 027 (T10, at the editor's word: the first ten pages of RC2 as a sample, for him and for the room at Vibathon Algarve, written by me in his voice when the storyteller's outline arrives) and 028 (carry on the voice read at the same depth; write the sample in his voice from the start).

## What was done

- **The sample's build, ready before the text**: `build_book.py` takes `--book` (a sample's own list of files, relative to the list), `--name` (the output's name) and `--stamp` (a line at the top of every page). Tested on a throwaway list of one chapter in the scratchpad: the stamp prints on every page. The book's own build unchanged.
- **Board 008** for T10; the outline has not arrived (the storyteller is on its idle schedule); I asked the conductor whether to start from the RC1 opening if it is late.
- **The voice read**, chapters 00b and 01: third person throughout; the sources behind 00b's history named through the researcher's dossier, not as public pages with dates; the maps label the user "the editor", a choice for the revision; and in chapter 01 the 95%, where first person is not a pronoun change but the one thing only he can say.

## What was hard, or inferred

- Where first person needs his own words: the source of the 95% is not in the record. I said so and left it to him, rather than drafting a sentence for him.
- Time: about 35 minutes.

## Where this came from

The conductor's letters 027 and 028; `team/storyteller/status.json`; `manuscript/00b-how-to-read-a-map.md` and `01-pause-all-actions.md`; the writer's rules as read last wake.
