Armoury
Where Strasbourg stores the war it insists will not arrive
Strasbourg's Armoury keeps rifles, powder, breech-blocks, parade steel, and very careful ledgers for a city that claims itself safe. Twenty thousand weapons wait more honestly than their owners speak.
Codex Ref. II.2.09-201

Cadence Reforms A.S. 95
The decree that put the bell above the barrel and made obedience audible
A.S. 95 reforms that made choir cadence govern shrine-platform batteries, created off-measure discharge as a punishable sin, and gave the bell legal teeth.
Codex Ref. VII.2.10-095

Canticle of Measured Fire
The bell failed. The voice kept the measure.
Saint Orla sang this Canticle through a burning Danube hymn-gallery, holding the guns in measure after the bell fouled. Rites counts forty minutes. The score is absent from my file.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.16-446

Canticle of Restraint
A locked magazine and eleven hours of unreasonable vocal endurance
Reported sung for eleven hours by Sister Margit during the Pressburg Mutiny following the A.S. 95 Cadence Reforms. The crew surrendered; the composer and score remain outside the Ledger.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.16-447

Cathedral Arsenal Office
The warmth has witnesses; the charter does not
Strasbourg office holding the brass pitch-pipe attributed to Saint Orla the Brass-Throated and sharing Shrine-Deck patronage with the Shrine Admiral. The warmth has witnesses; the charter does not.
Codex Ref. IV.3.12-518

Free Choirs
A voice may hold the measure; a wound may not grant the shot
A.S. 201 (1911 CE) survey of plural unsanctioned cadence cults among Shrine-Deck rivals. The Cologne cell claimed a bleeding throat outranked the firing seal; Purity suppressed it. Seven whistles do not establish a federation.
Codex Ref. XI.1.08-001

Ledger Reforms A.S. 165
No round without a name-bearing hand
A.S. 165 shrine-platform reform after the Bastion-Irongate grapeshot discharge, requiring each loaded round to bear a Powder Acolyte's name.
Codex Ref. VII.2.10-165

Metronome Bell
The seal says whether; the bell says when
Under the A.S. 95 Cadence Reforms, a small brass bell governs shrine-platform volleys. A missed toll stays missed; the Cadence Caller signs for the failure.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.95-095

Processional Arsenal
Where the church climbs on treads and the Gloria arrives as mortar fire
The Processional Arsenal is a mobile shrine-artillery Choir-Engine: cathedral, battery, choir school, and powder magazine advancing together on blessed treads.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.34-001

Saint Bartholomew of the Breech
Keep the hinge honest before prayer becomes shrapnel
Saint Bartholomew of the Breech guards shrine-artillery crews, not with comfort, but with latch, ledger, black palm, and the holy refusal of hidden powder.
Codex Ref. III.2.01-070
