Structural lore — the World Government’s codified body of law. Mysteries live in
Vault/Threads/; this is what the world IS.
What we know
- Ch. 1157: The era-of-Rocks narration credits the Rocks Pirates with “three special violations of Article 18 of World Law” within two years of founding (p. 7) — the first on-page reference to a numbered article of World-Government law. Minor seed: the named concept + a single cited article number are all that is established.
Chronology / structure
- Article 18 — cited (but not spelled out) as a law the Rocks Pirates violated three times during the “era of Rocks” (Ch. 1157).
