Expand milestone docs with several major new systems: M3: Religion overhaul — 12 custom tenets (3 per faith), 2 custom doctrine groups (Allomantic Stance, Caste Doctrine), expanded holy sites (~10, differentiated by faith, with conditional sites), tradition condition fixes, dead parameter cleanup. New task 3.11: Steel Inquisitor holy order + individual Inquisitor request mechanic, Keeper Network secret society with progression and discovery risk. M4: Council retheme (5 positions with 10 custom tasks), 7 court positions (Royal Court), legend system suppression, caste law system (3 tiers: Strict/Relaxed/Abolished with cross-caste consequence events), innovation system (Age of the Lord Ruler pre-unlocked + Age of Liberation locked behind lord_ruler_fallen flag). M5: Band council with 7 crew roles, vacancy penalties, ~14 role events, and 5 band tasks. Each crew member's Allomantic ability enhances their assigned role. M7: Advanced council interactions (~25 events) — kandra courtier replacement, Court Smoker vs Seeker duels, Obligator Witness betrayal, Terris Steward Keeper reveal. Post-endgame choice: seize the throne or release the kingdoms. Variable standardized to lord_ruler_fallen across all docs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Core Systems
- Allomancy — Genetic trait system. Dormant potential activates via "snapping" into Misting types or full Mistborn.
- Lord Ruler Attention — Variable (0–100) tracking defiance; escalating consequences.
- Compounding — Allomantic + Feruchemical overlap triggers on yearly pulse.
- Hemalurgy — Spike-based power transfer system.
