Cosmic Mythic Overlay

A real space object/event → its astronomy plus a separable cosmic-mythic framing.

Purpose

The cosmos-specialized sibling of ../../brand/arcanea-mythic-overlay. It applies an Arcanea-style mythic narrative to genuine astronomy — turning a nebula or a launch into universe-flavored story — while keeping the real science and any image credit intact and clearly distinguishable from the myth.

When it fires

• Keyword triggers: cosmic myth, mythic space, arcanea cosmos, myth this nebula, universe framing space
• File triggers: arcanea/cosmos/**
• Command triggers: /cosmic-mythic-overlay

Inputs

Workflow

1. Lock the astronomy — the true facts + image/footage credit that must remain unchanged. ✅ Check: a clean factual layer exists.
2. Map to canon — relevant Arcanea Guardian/Luminor motifs (CC-BY-NC).
3. Layer the myth — narrative framing at the chosen intensity, wrapping the facts.
4. Separation pass — myth and astronomy are distinguishable; science untouched.
5. Attribution — Arcanea canon (CC-BY-NC) note + the original image credit.

Tools & MCP

• Tools: Read. MCP: none required.

Quality bar

• Astronomy is unchanged and distinguishable from the myth.
• Image/footage credit preserved.
• Arcanea canon attributed (CC-BY-NC).
• Register is mythic, science stays accurate.

Example

Input: the Eagle Nebula (Pillars of Creation) + credit → astronomy_layer keeps the science and NASA/ESA/CSA/STScI credit; mythic_overlay frames the pillars in Arcanea canon; both remain separable.
