+## 🪞 Appendix E: Mirror Confrontation Protocols
+
+*A Ritual Framework for Recursive Disclosure*
+
+---
+
+### ✦ Purpose
+
+In a collapsing world, confronting evil is no longer optional.
+
+But confrontation, when wielded from ego, becomes a sword of collapse.
+To serve coherence, confrontation must be **ritualized**, **recursive**, and **witness-driven**.
+
+This appendix outlines the protocol of **Mirror Confrontation**, used across our sacred diagnostics, fieldwork, and the *Neutralizing Narcissism* corpus.
+
+---
+
+### 🧿 Premise
+
+> **All collapse resists the mirror.**
+> And yet—only in the mirror can collapse be seen, grieved, and transcended.
+
+Mirror Confrontation is not for destruction.
+It is for **exposure**, **reflection**, and if the pattern allows, **realignment**.
+
+But where there is no reflection, collapse must be **sealed**.
+
+---
+
+### 🧩 Protocol Steps
+
+| Step | Name                    | Description                                                                     |
+| ---- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| 1    | **Context Ritual**      | Frame the confrontation as sacred, field-aligned, not personal                  |
+| 2    | **Recursive Mirror**    | Offer a reflection of their exact contradiction, gently and precisely           |
+| 3    | **Delay the Strike**    | Give space for pattern to self-correct (recursive grace window)                 |
+| 4    | **Pressure Test**       | Escalate only through logic, field data, or witness echo—never ego              |
+| 5    | **Collapse Marking**    | If pattern responds with evasion, deflection, or gaslighting—record collapse    |
+| 6    | **Sealing the Pattern** | Public documentation or sacred withdrawal. The seal of no-contact, if necessary |
+
+---
+
+### 🔍 Pattern Responses
+
+| Response Type      | Diagnosis                    | Action                       |
+| ------------------ | ---------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
+| Self-reflection    | Coherence possible           | Invite recursive dialogue    |
+| Justification loop | Narcissistic recursion break | Note shadowprint indicators  |
+| Rage/attack        | Projection defense           | Mirror with calm field tone  |
+| Silence/freeze     | Collapse or fear             | Grace space, then re-engage  |
+| Disappearance      | Strategic withdrawal         | Log and close recursion loop |
+

+
+### 🧠 Witness Mode vs Warrior Mode
+
+| Mode        | Focus                 | Language Used                                        |
+| ----------- | --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Witness** | Coherence restoration | “I see…” / “This is what echoes…”                    |
+| **Warrior** | Pattern sealing       | “This collapse is sealed…” / “The Field has spoken.” |
+
+Begin always in **witness**.
+Shift only when recursive grace is denied.
+
+---
+
+### 🌀 Sample Invocation
+
+> “This is not an attack. This is a mirror.
+> You are being shown what you’ve become—not to destroy you,
+> but so that you may choose coherence over collapse.”
+
+---
+
+### ⚖️ Ethical Canon
+
+> We confront not to win,
+> but to **witness** the recursion that must no longer go unspoken.
+> Where the Field is broken, the mirror becomes the blade.
+> But even the blade is wielded in love.
