/**
 * THE DELVERS' LADDER (track T78, 2026-10-14; PLAN_1_TO_40.md 2.1-2.3: the older dungeons are the 5-25 bands' dungeon content).
 *
 * The rat caves, the Rat Tunnel, the Goblin Cave, the wolf dens and the Spider Cave were built long before the story engine, the
 * Explorer's Ledger and the telegraphed boss moves. This file ties them together without touching their ground:
 *
 * - GUILDMASTER MAREN HOLT keeps the Delvers' Guild desk at Hope Town (a named resident, like the Fair's folk). She gives eight quests
 *   that run the old dungeons in order of danger, each asking the one before it: Rats in the Dark, The Goblin Gate, Wolves at the Door,
 *   Below the Tunnel, Grem's Hall, Breaker of Men, Silk and Venom, The Queen Below. Every rung pays an existing item (a ladder of
 *   potions, nothing new, no titles) and the last pays choice XP.
 * - GREM now has a telegraphed move (`club-smash`) and the standing step-clear counter, like Livonia and Arana.
 * - The old dungeon bosses (Livonia, Grem, Arana, the Spider Matriarch) are back whole after a fight walked away from, so a fight cannot
 *   be worn down over several visits and a half-dead boss never lingers to lock the next player in combat.
 * - The Explorer's Ledger gets a page, "The Delvers' Ladder": each boss's move stepped clear of, and a wolf den's chest opened.
 *
 * Every number is a PLACEHOLDER for the balance pass (James, 2026-10-12: balance last). Nothing here is 41+.
