Cosmic Mythic Overlay
A real space object/event → its astronomy plus a separable cosmic-mythic framing.
Purpose
The cosmos-specialized sibling of
../../brand/arcanea-mythic-overlay. It
applies an Arcanea-style mythic narrative to genuine astronomy — turning a nebula
or a launch into universe-flavored story — while keeping the real science and any
image credit intact and clearly distinguishable from the myth.

Inputs
| Input | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
object |
yes | The real space object/event + its facts/credit. |
intensity |
no | light (default), medium, full. |
Workflow
- Lock the astronomy — the true facts + image/footage credit that must remain unchanged. ✅ Check: a clean factual layer exists.
- Map to canon — relevant Arcanea Guardian/Luminor motifs (CC-BY-NC).
- Layer the myth — narrative framing at the chosen
intensity, wrapping the facts. - Separation pass — myth and astronomy are distinguishable; science untouched.
- Attribution — Arcanea canon (CC-BY-NC) note + the original image credit.

Quality bar

- Image/footage credit preserved.
- Arcanea canon attributed (CC-BY-NC).
- Register is mythic, science stays accurate.
Example
Input: the Eagle Nebula (Pillars of Creation) + credit → astronomy_layer keeps
the science and NASA/ESA/CSA/STScI credit; mythic_overlay frames the pillars in
Arcanea canon; both remain separable.
