The provided synopsis is very short. The prompt asks for a 280-380 word recap.
Problem: There is almost no information to reach 280 words without violating the "never invent or guess" rule.
Strategy: I must expand on the context provided in the sources (the nature of the series, the backstory, the character dynamics) while remaining strictly within the provided text. I cannot invent scenes.
Wait: If I strictly follow "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported," and the facts are minimal, I cannot reach 280 words without repeating myself or being extremely verbose about the few facts
