The opening write view shows "The lantern keeper," chapter three, parts 11
through 13. Part 12 is on take 3 of 5:

"He did not move toward the stairs. Instead he set the brass compass on the bar
between them, and its needle went around twice, slow, like a dog deciding
whether to lie down, and stopped pointing at Maren. 'Has the cliff road ever
been walked at night without a light?' he asked. 'Not by anyone who came back,'
she said. The needle shivered and held."

Compose: Enter opens the composer. The direction "let the unlit lantern answer"
is typed and submitted. The generated next part reads: "The lantern flame bent
toward the compass, though no door had opened." The program then waits.

Compare takes: Up moves back through story parts to the five-take passage. Left
and Right compare sibling takes without removing any of them.

Explore the path map: M opens one row per story part. Circles show sibling
takes, the selected take is highlighted, and word counts sit at the right.
Arrow keys move through parts and takes before Escape returns to the story.

Every key in one place: Question mark opens this complete reference, then Page
Down shows the remaining commands:
