Tali laid the sources in separate rows.

Regional tax sheet: 347 registered residents.

Seasonal hut estimate: 31.

School roll: 62 children, 4 teachers, 1 caretaker.

Kiln wage books: 113 named workers across six months.

Market permits: 26 tax holders and no family counts.

Post Nine drum: 79 names spoken under active harm.

The records supported a rough sequence.

At first bell, Low Rill still had open market roads. Forty-seven people signed grain receipts after the ministry claimed evacuation.

At second bell, the school and north kiln lost eastward doors. Seventy-one residents used a cart road south before that road vanished. Their departure receipt ended at a regional toll house. No arrival list survived in the Post Nine drum.

At third bell, black water entered the dry basin and the market warned Post Eight for four hours.
