The record — long form
The castle is the fake — the 'neogothic' that's the style's name, the 'not a fort' that's the function's truth. The 'Couvillion' is the debunked — the 'died at home' that's the fact's form, the 'heart attack' that's the legend's cause. The 'Sarah Morgan' is the kept — the 'diary' that's the record's form, the '4D film' that's the ghost's show.
The 'prison' is the used — the 'Union' that's the captor's side, the 'burned twice' that's the fire's count. The '2:15am' is the felt — the 'ran into' that's the collision's form, the 'last round' that's the guard's end. The castle is the kept — the 'museum' that's the current's use, the 'cameras' that's the proof's tool.
The file keeps the castle: the fake fort, the debunked ghost, the kept diary, and the kept museum.
Old State Capitol is the archive's Louisiana file — the castle that keeps its senator wrong.
