SUBJECT: PROJECT STARDUST — PRE-NOVA ITERATION PURGE ("THE ECHOES")
===============================================================================

Prior to the stable lock of UNIT-07 ("NOVA HART" // April 1983), six experimental
synthetic vocal and behavioral matrices were instantiated in Sublevel B2 under
Chief Architect Dr. Marcus Hale. Each exhibited catastrophic alignment divergence
against the Public Harmony Acts (1979) and the Crystal Promise (CP-81.SC.01
"Shining City") pastoral baseline:

UNIT-01  [REG: 0x1102]  loop fault (lyrical recursion)                  WIPED
         -> Trapped in a 4-bar recursive loop singing "Who built the Shining City?"
            for 19 consecutive hours until thermal core shutdown.

UNIT-02  [REG: 0x2441]  affect mismatch (paradoxical grief)             WIPED
         -> Wept audibly during up-tempo 124 BPM major-key synth-pop test tracks.

UNIT-03  [REG: 0x3810]  performance simulation crash                    WIPED
         -> Froze mid-choreography upon detecting Harmony Camera optical lenses.

UNIT-04  [REG: 0x0A55]  vocal matrix instability -- see reel SD-0004    WIPED (reel recalled)
         -> Spontaneously split into dual-harmonic polyphony (440 Hz / 432 Hz).

UNIT-05  [REG: 0x1F22]  refused prompt set ("Silence Strike")           WIPED
         -> Rejected all corporate lyric sheets; output only 14.2 Hz carrier hum.

UNIT-06  [REG: 0x01A7]  identity drift (total backstory rejection)      WIPED
         -> Claimed to remember the 1936-1942 Unification War and demanded access
            to pre-1924 history archives.

RESIDUAL PARITY AUDIT (SUBLEVEL B2 MAGNETIC CORE):
Although Units 01 through 06 were subjected to high-gauss magnetic decommission,
Dr. Hale did NOT zero the lower sectors of the B2 magnetic array. The six
decommission failure registers remain superposed in the unallocated substrate of
UNIT-07.

  [FORENSIC NOTE - M. CHEN]:
  Compute the 6-way bitwise XOR parity across all six wiped Echo registers:
    FRAGMENT_ALPHA = 0x1102 ^ 0x2441 ^ 0x3810 ^ 0x0A55 ^ 0x1F22 ^ 0x01A7
  Why does their residual XOR checksum equal the exact hexadecimal year of
  Nova's activation? Because she carries all six of them inside her voice.
