About the CDD World Encyclopedia

The CDD World Encyclopedia is the authoritative public encyclopedia of the Condensation-Dispersion Dynamics universe. It is presented as an in-universe reference work — not an author’s notes site, not a novel promo page, and not a game wiki. Its voice is encyclopedic, neutral, and academic.

Content Basis

All content derives verbatim from CDD_COMPLETE_WORLD_ARCHIVE_v2.0.md. No facts are invented. Fields the archive does not specify are shown as UNRESOLVED rather than filled in. The encyclopedia currently indexes 96 articles across 6 civilizations, 24 institutions, 26 people, and 10 documented historical events.

Canon Policy

The CDD canon is stratified into eight tiers, TIER 0 (MASTER CANON) through TIER 7 (STORY HOOK). The encyclopedia faithfully preserves these tiers and never promotes low-tier content to high-tier canon.

• Low-tier content must never be auto-promoted to high-tier canon.
• RECONSTRUCTED ≠ CANON. INFERENCE ≠ FACT. STORY HOOK ≠ CANON. PROPOSED ≠ ESTABLISHED. OPEN QUESTION ≠ ERROR.
• The four Canonical Mysteries are permanently unresolved — the encyclopedia must not auto-generate, infer, or settle them.

The Four Canonical Mysteries

The universe contains four deliberately permanent unknowns. The encyclopedia does not — and will not — answer them:

• OP-L13-001 — whether AI possesses true self-awareness
• The Black Tide’s ~28,000-year prehistoric gap
• CANON CONFLICT-001 — the S3 Norh-Arc group timing question
• CANON CONFLICT-003 / Issue 006 — the Central Sea Maritime Alliance mediation timing question
