The seed

First on-page direct Igaram communication post-Ch. 0113 decoy-explosion at the textual-evidence tier. The Ch. 125 cover-art signal (Igaram alive in Igarappoi disguise) is now textually corroborated.
The court’s contradiction: they have a letter from Igaram saying I am leaving the country (sent before Whisky Peak), AND they believe he died at Whisky Peak (the decoy-ship reports). Both can be true (he left, then was killed on a different ship) — the contradiction sits unresolved at the court.
Trust-the-princess-and-Igaram doctrine: Chaka and Pell treat the letter as a signal that Igaram and Vivi have a plan. Pre-loads the forward-canon Igaram-return-as-restoration-of-rightful-commander arc-beat.
