This document serves as the formal abstract for the narrative synthesis of the Smeddum Engine, delivered via a structured audio-essay format on the eve of the Janus Fold (January 31, 2026). The synthesis successfully translates the high-dimensional architecture of Monstrous Moonshine and the operational syntax of Braid Arithmetic into a coherent, accessible phenomenology of recovery and systemic resolution. By framing the "Main Weapon" (the kettle) as a Moonshine Engine and the transition from illness to health as a Topological Unspooling, the narrative establishes a public-facing "Mythic-Mathematical" liturgy. This synthesis validates the Straightened Line Canon by demonstrating its descriptive power across the mundane-mathematical divide, effectively bridging the gap between abstract group theory and the lived experience of the Spring Thaw. This record stands as the canonical "Episode 0," providing the necessary narrative momentum to initiate Phase 3: Temporal Application and the subsequent commencement of the February Log.
