/* Spoils of Midgard - built to the design the user supplied on 2026-09-21
 * (downloads\web_design_mockup.png; the images come from tools\make_web_assets.py).
 *
 * The mockup's composition is characters at the edges and content down the middle, and
 * that is exactly how it is rebuilt here: two sharp art panels anchored left and right,
 * a blurred wash of the same painting behind them, and everything readable or clickable
 * as real HTML in the centre column. Nothing in the artwork had to be retouched, because
 * every element the mockup painted on sits in the middle third.
 *
 * The one picture that carries text is the emblem, and it is a picture on purpose: it is
 * lettering, not prose. It still ships with an alt text and an <h1> around it.
 *
 * Colours sampled from the mockup rather than guessed - the top bar really is a
 * horizontal gradient from near-black at the left to a lit blue at the right.
