Compressed action may exceed stated time window

Several physically demanding actions are placed inside a four-minute eclipse window, creating a plausibility risk unless magic, distance, or time dilation is clarified.

What does this mean?
Evidence / text area
Chapter/section: Chapter 37: Glass Moon
Location: Estimated pages 412-418; Sequence-level signal
The eclipse would last four minutes, no longer.
Sorren reached the vault steps, climbed until his lungs burned, fought the priest, copied the third page, and returned before the light changed.
Diagnostic next step

Map the beat-by-beat action against the stated time limit and clarify any worldbuilding exception.

How to review this
  1. Put the cited moments into the order readers are supposed to understand them.
  2. Compare that intended order with the time markers currently on the page.
  3. Add or adjust a date, elapsed-time cue, transition, or return-from-memory marker only where the reader could lose the sequence.

Mark intentional if the time shift is meant to be ambiguous and later clarified, ignore if the evidence is unrelated, or mark for correction if readers need a stronger time anchor.
