SANJIESAN LORE / Rule wording
Name the actor when a world rule changes hands
A rule about giving, receiving or copying an object can fail because the sentence never clearly says who acts. Google’s global-audience guidance recommends clear pronoun references. For a fictional rule, check a short handover involving two people before adding a third participant or a dramatic interruption to the scene.
Write the handover with named roles
Invent a token whose appearance changes when its holder gives it to another person. Name the giver and receiver in the reference sentence, even if the result sounds repetitive. Decide whose touch, intention or spoken words matter in your original rule. Avoid an instruction such as when they accept it, it changes if either they or it can refer to more than one participant or object.
Interrupt one action at a time
Write three small variations: the giver offers the token, the receiver touches it, and the receiver actually takes possession. State at which point the change occurs. If another person catches the falling object, decide whether the same rule applies or a different situation has begun. This is a wording exercise, not an invitation to add a new exception every time an ambiguity appears in the draft.
Check dialogue against the reference
Let a character explain the handover informally, then compare that explanation with the author’s exact rule. A character may simplify or misunderstand it, but the project should identify that difference intentionally. Check the English and Chinese actor names after translation. When the artwork depicts a different person performing the decisive action, resolve the mismatch before relying on the image to prove that the rule was followed.
