The latest confirmed development in the storm refuge terms is that the circle publishes options with the seasonal limits stated beside them. The update comes from the covered room at High Fern Crossing; the existing arrangement remains in force until the board closes this window.

Elya Thorn, refuge room steward, confirmed 68 nights with a room open before the warning bell in the file. The previous window recorded 67; the totals do not settle how a shared refuge can open when its key keeper and maintenance crew are in different towns.

The unresolved point is specific: The key ledger names the host town. The agreement assigns the repair crew to a neighboring circle. No final outcome has been posted before the scheduled decision.

Residents and staff continue under the current schedule while the review is open.

NEXT UPDATE: The Year third, seedfall window 3 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The agreement will name a second key holder for the next storm season. A fresh window will use a new date and source record.
