/**
 * THE NOBLE QUARTER'S INTRIGUE (COVERAGE_1_40.md section 6 slice 8, 2026-10-18; the Capital district `capital-noble`, levels 31-40, no new ground).
 *
 * The Noble Quarter had four manors, a fountain, a notice board and two strollers, and nothing to DO: 0 quests over 7,735 tiles. This is a
 * follow-the-clues chain with NO fights, built on The Missing Shipment's pattern (touch clue props, talk to the people who saw something, an
 * ordered touch, a hand-in), on mechanics the game already has:
 *
 *   1. A Quiet Word at the Fountain   Steward Alaric Venn   Combat 31    read three clues on the Quarter's two streets, ask the Blue and Green
 *                                                                          Manors' people what they saw, report back
 *   2. Four Doors, One Story          Steward Alaric Venn   Combat 33    ask the Red and Purple Manors' people, and put the four hours
 *                                                                          together (the order the thing moved is in what they say)
 *   3. What the Garden Walls Kept     Steward Alaric Venn   Combat 35    touch the four cart marks at the manors' gates in the order the cart
 *                                                                          passed them (a wrong one starts over), then choose what the Steward does
 *
 * The story: the Crown's envoy dines in the Quarter at the end of the month and the silver for the table has gone from the Steward's store. Nobody
 * has to be hurt and nobody is. The cart that carried it passed all four houses in the night; each house's person tells the hour it passed
 * (`NQ_HOURS`), the four marks show where, and the order of the hours is the order to touch the marks in. The choice at the end is the Steward's quiet
 * word or the Crown Clerk's formal report: both finish the quest, each pays a little different.
 *
 * Quest props are `questprop` entities (style `<prop>:<which>`), drawn on models the game already has until models of their own (upgrades list). The five
 * people are `resident`-kind Capital folk (backend capitalPeople.ts spawns them after every other Capital person, so no earlier id moves). No bank, no
 * healer, no shop and no blessing: this is a story to read and walk, not a place to trade. Every number is a PLACEHOLDER for the balance pass.
 *
 * Types only from storyQuests.ts (an erased import), so storyQuests.ts can spread NOBLE_INTRIGUE_QUESTS without a cycle.
