“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S.

⟡ THE SWANK CANON Master Index⟡



ON ORGANIZATION

Some things require an index. Authority is one of them.


Statement of Filing

The SWANK Canon is now indexed.

This is not an update.
It is not an expansion.
It is not an invitation.

It is an act of organization.


What This Index Does

The Master Index records the Canon as a closed doctrinal system comprising:

  • 27 Arcs

  • 109 Position Pages

  • one continuous argument concerning the operation, failure, harm, repair, and termination of authority

Each Arc addresses a discrete ethical failure point.
Each Position Page stands independently and cumulatively.

This structure is intentional.
Disorder is not an aesthetic choice.


Why an Index Was Necessary

Authority frequently benefits from obscurity.

Diffuse records.
Fragmented reasoning.
Endless documents without internal coherence.

The Master Index removes that convenience.

It establishes:

  • where each principle sits,

  • how each failure connects to the next,

  • and where authority is required to stop pretending confusion is complexity.


What This Is Not

This Index is not a reading guide.
It is not a summary.
It is not a simplification.

It does not exist to make the Canon easier.
It exists to make avoidance harder.

Those encountering difficulty here are not encountering ambiguity.
They are encountering structure.


Canonical Effect

With the publication of the Master Index:

  • no Position Page can be treated as isolated,

  • no Arc can be dismissed as anecdotal,

  • no claim of misunderstanding can be sustained in good faith.

The Canon is now navigable, citable, and closed.

This is generally the point at which institutions become quiet.


Closing Entry

The SWANK Canon was never written to be browsed.

It was written to be located.

The Master Index ensures that nothing here can be credibly described as accidental, excessive, or unclear.

It is all exactly where it belongs.


Filed as doctrine.
Indexed for memory.
Not optimized for comfort.
