Prompt

    Help me convert this passage to a different point of view or tense.

The passage:
{{passage}}

Convert it to — point of view: {{target_pov}} (e.g. first person, third limited, third omniscient); tense: {{target_tense}} (past or present).
Anything to preserve (a narrator's voice, specific lines): {{preserve}}

Please:
- Rewrite the passage cleanly in the target POV and tense — consistent all the way through, with no slips back to the original.
- Preserve the meaning, events, and emotional beats; keep the author's voice and style intact.
- Handle what the POV change affects: in a tighter POV, cut what the viewpoint character couldn't know; in a wider one, you may add other characters' perspective where it helps.
- Flag any line where the shift creates a problem (something only the old POV could reveal), so I can decide how to handle it.

Give me the converted passage, then a one-line note on anything the change forced you to cut or add. Keep it my voice, just retold. If the target POV or tense is ambiguous, ask before converting.
