The seed
Why this matters
The chapter installs Bell-mère’s pre-Cocoyasi biography as combat-veteran-turned-mother. The belle-mère etymology now operates on two axes simultaneously — step-mother (relational, Ch. 70/77 confirmation) and combat-veteran-turned-mother (biographical, Ch. 79 confirmation). The Ch. 1 page-1 Marine-cap that Genzo wears is now retro-readable as Bell-mère’s-uniform-or-her-comrade’s — the village headman’s marine-coded hat may date to Bell-mère’s been to sea and to war era. The specific affiliation (Marine? freelance mercenary? a specific named war/unit?) remains pending. SBS data is the long-term verification source.
