Where the original thirty books belong
This crosswalk preserves the exact numbered titles in the root ILLUMINATED_CODEX_MASTER_PLAN.md entry of The New Bible Complete Writings.zip. The original six-volume order remains visible. Each new destination is an editorial route into the approved twelve-volume cycle, with material available to both the Novel and Codex editions. Mapping does not adopt a draft or make its claims historical.
Draft evidence comes from named archive entries and top-level Markdown files in the parent Novel folder. Chapter counts describe observed headings, not completed editorial review. “Plan only” means no matching standalone book heading in those inspected sources; other archives and folders may contain more.

What the evidence changes
- The Book of the Mother has five observed chapter headings. Lilith has three against six planned chapters.
- The Knowing Child is absent from this zip but has five chapter headings in the parent
ILLUMINATED_CODEX_COMPLETE.md. - Eve survives in a separate book and an omnibus; both remain distinct pending comparison. A filename containing “complete” does not settle which variant to use.
- The Firstborn has related material inside the Lightbringer grimoire. No standalone Book of the Firstborn heading was found in the inspected sources.
- The Torus has four observed chapter headings whose names differ from the plan. Cultivation has eight observed headings against seven planned. Count alone cannot establish passage coverage.
- The Unraveling has multiple parent files and overlapping arcs. Its largest inspected structure has 33 chapter/prologue/epilogue headings; that is not a count of unique finished chapters.
- The Lightbringer grimoire, Book of Magic, and Codex Tenebrae are additional author works outside the original thirty. Their material is retained as separate evidence.
