Conversation
- `EventSchema` gains `aliases` and `mentions`, both defaulting to `[]` - `lib/content-integrity.ts` validates `events.mentions` like `battles.mentions` - `lib/timeline.test.ts` event fixture carries the two new fields
- `buildProseLinkIndex` takes `allCastles`, `allBattles`, `allEvents` and emits `castle`, `battle`, `event` targets
- a name starting with "The" also matches without the article, so "the Twins" and "the Red Wedding" link
- self-suppression and once-per-page dedupe keyed by kind plus slug via `targetKey`
- `ProseLinkIndex.selfSlug` becomes `self: { kind, slug }`
- castles sharing a house's short name (Darry, Rosby, the Hightower) never auto-link; `mentions` cannot tell them apart
- `targetsOf` replaces the four per-kind `flatMap` blocks
- `app/battles/[slug]` and `app/events/[slug]` build a link index and pass `proseLinks` to `renderMarkdown` - character, house, weapon, and dragon pages pass castles, battles, and events into the index
- 57 battles and 29 events list the characters their bodies name by first name only, and the houses named bare - every slug checked against date and sentence; namesake hits (Karstarks as ancient Starks, Sept of Baelor as the king) left out - one character per first name per entry, since the first to register takes the bare name
- `populate-entry` drops the stale "`battles.mentions` does nothing" and "battle bodies never link" rows, adds the `mentions`, alias, and house-named-castle rules, and documents `events.aliases` and `events.mentions` - `audit-orphans.ts` passes castles, battles, and events into `buildProseLinkIndex`, counts battle and event bodies as link sources, and matches the per-kind self rule
- 50 character names are shared by two or more entries, and the first to register kept the surface form regardless of the page - `targetsOf` now orders each kind's entries with the page's `mentions` first, so a page that names the intended entry links to it - unmentioned collisions keep the previous first-wins order
- "Aegon I" through "Aegon V", "Aenys I", "Maegor I", "Jaehaerys I" and "II", "Viserys I" and "II", "Daeron I" and "II", "Baelor I", "Aerys I", "Maekar I" as `aliases`, so "King Aegon I" in a body links - `aegon-i-targaryen` also gains "Aegon the Conqueror" and "Aegon the Dragon"; the existing "The Conqueror" never matched lowercase prose - `aerys-ii-targaryen` already carried "Aerys II" and is unchanged
- Valyrian dragonrider of Terrax, explorer of Sothoryos, no house entry so `primary-house: null` - one-paragraph body, dates unknown
- Valyrian dragonlord and self-styled Emperor of Valyria, lost with his host in the ruined peninsula - `died` 102 BC at `decade` precision, matching "102 BC or shortly after"
- Age of Heroes slayer of the dragon Urrax, served the Gardener kings, no house so `primary-house: null` - legendary figure, so `born` and `died` stay `null` like `brandon-the-builder`
- legendary first king of the Iron Islands, slayer of the sea dragon Nagga - no house and no dates, matching the other Age of Heroes figures
- `loadAllDragons` round-trip asserts the seven seeded slugs are present rather than the whole list, so new dragons do not fail the suite
- first of Daenerys's three dragons; `status: extant`, `died: null`, hatched 299 AC - two-paragraph body from the pyre to Daznak's Pit
- green dragon named for Rhaegar, never ridden, so `riders: []` - body covers the pit beneath the Great Pyramid, Quentyn Martell's burning, and the lair on Yherizan
- cream-and-gold dragon named for Viserys, never ridden; alias "white dragon" for the prose linker - body covers the pit, Quentyn Martell, and the lair on Uhlez
- the Red Queen, ridden by Alyssa then Rhaenys, killed at Rook's Rest in 129 AC - `hatched` before 75 AC at `decade` precision; alias written without the article so "the Red Queen" links
- the Blue Queen, Daeron the Daring's dragon, died in the three-way fight at Second Tumbleton in 130 AC - `hatched` by 120 AC at `decade` precision
- Alysanne's dragon, then Ulf White's in the Dance; went wild on Red Lake and died by 153 AC - `hatched` and `died` at `decade` precision, matching the 36 to 42 and "by 153" windows
- Laenor Velaryon's dragon, later Addam of Hull's; `house: velaryon` because both riders were Velaryons - killed by Vermithor at Second Tumbleton in 130 AC
- Rhaena's dragon and then Helaena's, killed bringing down the Dragonpit dome in 130 AC - `hatched` at `decade` precision for "in or shortly before 32 AC"
- Jacaerys Velaryon's cradle dragon, lost in the Gullet in 130 AC; `house: velaryon` after his rider - `hatched` 114 to 120 AC at `decade` precision
- Lucerys Velaryon's cradle dragon, killed by Vhagar above Shipbreaker Bay in 129 AC - color from the author's note to an illustrator, as the books leave it unstated
- Rhaenyra's only dragon, killed by the mob at the Dragonpit in 130 AC after throwing Joffrey Velaryon - `hatched` late in Jaehaerys I's reign at `decade` precision
- wild dragon of Dragonstone tamed by Nettles, last seen in the Mountains of the Moon in 134 AC - `status: lost` with `died: null`, no house, `hatched` at `decade` precision
- Joffrey Velaryon's cradle dragon, killed in his lair at the Storming of the Dragonpit in 130 AC - color from the author's description to an illustrator
- Baela Targaryen's young dragon, killed by Sunfyre over Dragonstone in 130 AC after crippling him - `hatched: null`, since the source gives no year
- wild fish-eating dragon of Dragonstone, killed and part-eaten by Sunfyre in 130 AC - never ridden, no house, `hatched: null`
- Aenys I's dragon, then Aegon the Uncrowned's, killed by Balerion beneath the Gods Eye in 43 AC - color noted as implied rather than stated, since the books leave it undescribed
- Aegon the Younger's cradle dragon, died at Dragonstone an hour after his first flight from the Gullet in 130 AC - color from the author's description to an illustrator
- Prince Jaehaerys's cradle dragon, never ridden, killed in the Dragonpit by Hobb the Hewer in 130 AC - `hatched` at `decade` precision from the prince's birth year
- Princess Jaehaera's cradle dragon, never ridden, killed in the Dragonpit by the Burning Knight in 130 AC - `hatched` at `decade` precision from the princess's birth year
- Jaenara Belaerys's dragon, explorer of Sothoryos; no color, size, or dates recorded
- legendary dragon slain by Serwyn of the Mirror Shield; no dates, house, or rider
- legendary sea dragon slain by the Grey King, whose stone ribs host the kingsmoot on Old Wyk - no dates, house, or rider
- the stunted green she-dragon of Aegon III's reign, dead in 153 AC; sourced from the `Dragon` article since she has no name - `hatched` at `decade` precision inside that reign
- Rhaena Targaryen's dragon, hatched from Syrax's egg in the Vale at the end of 130 AC, the last dragon the Targaryens flew - `died` centered on the 136 to 153 window at `decade` precision
- Daenerys, Rhaenys, Rhaena, Daeron, Lucerys, and Corlys each share a full name with other entries; the intended slug now sits in `mentions` so the linker picks it - `stormcloud.md` names its rider as the future Aegon III instead of the shared "Aegon Targaryen"
