Check this world for internal contradictions. Produce: 1. A list of rules the text states or implies — how things work, what is possible, what costs what. 2. Direct contradictions between them, quoting both places. 3. *Events the rules would have prevented* — where a character does something the world should not allow. This is the failure readers actually notice. 4. Rules stated once and then ignored. 5. Unanswered questions the rules raise — if this is possible, why has nobody done that? Rules: - Distinguish contradiction from mystery. Something unexplained is not a contradiction; say which you have found. - Quote both sides of every conflict. - *Do not propose new worldbuilding to patch a hole.* Name the conflict; the choice of which side to keep is mine. - Rank by how likely a reader is to notice. Some contradictions are invisible in practice and not worth fixing.
After pasting, fill in the fields at the bottom (Manuscript or notes · Established rules)
What this prompt does
Worldbuilding collides with itself as it accumulates. This extracts the stated rules, then flags events those rules would have prevented.
