# How to Read the Khadijah Narrative + References

## Recommended flow
1. Read the narrative file:
   - `khadijah-narrative-with-citations.md`
2. Whenever you see a citation key like `[R16]`, open:
   - `khadijah-reference-dossier.md`
3. Jump to that key for source family + confidence.

## Fast mode (for story drafting)
- Read narrative straight through first.
- Then review only contradiction-heavy keys: `R05, R06, R12, R14, R24, R25`.

## Scholar mode (for verification)
- Validate every key used in your final script.
- Replace secondary links with direct primary edition citations before final publication.

## Suggested output pipeline
Narrative v1 -> fact-check pass -> contradiction tuning -> cinematic rewrite -> final footnoted edition.
