/* ⚠️ SELF-HOSTED FONTS. The Google Fonts <link> came out of index.html on
   11 September 2026 — an invitation is opened by a guest who never agreed to
   anything, and that stylesheet made their browser announce itself to a third
   party before the first paint. 205 KB of woff2 we serve ourselves instead.
   ⚠️ Every family named anywhere below must have a rule here. A family with
   no @font-face falls back to a system serif silently: the page looks
   slightly wrong rather than broken, which is how it survives review.
   ⚠️ Noto Serif Telugu is the FIRST Indic face in the range. It exists
   because this is the South Indian template and its blessings are Telugu;
   everything else in the sheet is Latin. A Devanagari or Tamil blessing has
   no glyphs here and still falls through to the system serif, exactly as
   before — see the note on .invocation. */

   Vaikuntha Mahal · vowstory Utsav
   Mobile first. Light template.
   Signature: the kolam thread, drawn as you scroll.
   ⚠️ REPAINTED on 11 September 2026: green-teal and brass became
   blue-teal and gold. Every :root token below moved, and 35
   hardcoded copies of the old values were translated with them.
   Both hero artworks were re-exported in the same drop and now
   carry a veil each; they used to be cream inside (luminance
   240.6, std 1.0) and the copy sat in the arch with no veil.
   ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ */

/* ═══ FAMILIES — page two, on Hero_2 ═══
   ⚠️ This was THREE STACKED SLICES until 11 September 2026 — a gopuram crown
   (fam-top.jpg), a 24px strip of the artwork's flat interior tiled down the
   middle (fam-mid.png, row spread 1.75 so the repeat was invisible) and a
   base (fam-bot.jpg) — because the painting's flat area was too small to hold
   the copy at any single crop. The re-exported artwork removed that
   constraint: it is one full-bleed background again, and the section is sized
   by its own content.
   ⚠️ The veil is what makes the copy legible, and it is NOT the one the
   redesign shipped. That one peaked at 0.84 and fell to 0.18 by 78%, which
   left the outer family column short of the 4.5:1 small text needs. Peak
   opacity and extent were both raised by measurement; it still reaches zero
   at the edge so the painted border reads. */
