Welcome to the cloud castle. The guests can enter only after the invitation checks are completed in the right order. Your team has the original records on the table. First recover five pieces of information, then use the final plan to rebuild the castle welcome schedule. Keep every result beside its badge so another teammate can check your reasoning.

Read the event letters and all three witness notes.
Join immediately-before pairs as a block; other before notes set the direction between blocks.
Try the remaining positions, then check every note against your full order before reading the requested position.
A
The before relationships connect all four events. Place linked cards, check any immediate handoff and then read the specified position. Result: A.
Start with the status field in Guest ledger.
The tag links an item to a bay; rows in separate records need not line up.
Keep only entries meeting every status test. Follow each printed join to the report field; do not guess from row position.
KITE
Check source status first, then join the matching tag and bay. The useful information comes from separate records, not their printed row order. Result: KITE.
Find the column letters and row numbers on the grid.
A coordinate gives column first and row second; keep the printed coordinate order.
Read the full word before using the conversion table. If the word is missing, recheck each row and column rather than choosing a similar word.
6
A3, B1, C2, D3 reads GATE. The conversion table gives 6. Result: 6.
Find all the event cards and the before notes.
Connect cards linked by the notes; a card position is counted from the beginning of the completed order.
Check every before relationship, then read only the requested position. The printed card arrangement is not the answer order.
5
The only order is Find seal > Read invite > Check gate > Enter hall. Position 4 carries 5. Result: 5.
Find opening stock, closing stock and the DONE or CANCELLED marks.
Only completed entries change stock. A cancelled plan cannot be added or subtracted.
Apply every known completed change to opening stock. Compare that result with closing stock to recover the missing completed return.
3
Known stock: 11 + 2 - 2 = 11. Closing stock 14 minus 11 gives the missing return 3. Cancelled +7 never arrived. Result: 3.
Keep the five named results beside the final plan and find the key for each badge.
Each badge controls a different fact, road leg, order note, pulse or habitat layer. Use the matching key exactly once.
Check the completed product against all five recovered facts. If two answers remain, locate the fact that distinguishes them rather than guessing.
B-D-A-F-C-E
The five recovered order notes link all six events. Arrange them into one continuous order. Removing any link leaves two neighboring sections without a known order. Checked result: B-D-A-F-C-E.
Pause whenever the group needs a break. This is a planning estimate.
