Problem

Marcus sits in the Garden doing nothing. Static character with no dialogue, no movement.

What This Is

Marcus the old man from the church:

Walks between Garden and Threshold occasionally
Has 10+ context-aware dialogue lines
Responds when wizards approach
Remembers which wizards he has talked to

Implementation

world/npcs.py - NPC class with dialogue trees, movement schedule, memory
15+ lines, weighted by context
When a wizard enters Marcus room, he speaks
Marcus walks to Threshold once per day

Acceptance

Marcus speaks at least once per day to each wizard who visits
At least 15 unique dialogue lines
Marcus occasionally moves to the Threshold
Marcus remembers conversations
