Well, this merge didn't go as expected, at all. Went in trying to make an 8B downscale of Blackfall Summanus and a comical amount of dumb mistakes later, managed to make this surprisingly solid merge. I don't know either, I'm still processing how this model exists because I fat-fingered my keyboard. Anyways, here is Sammanus Ara. For more information, please look at the original model card above.

Details & Recommended Settings
Compared to the OG 15B version, BF Summanus Ara is surprisingly capable for it's size while keeping most of the original attributes. Obviously, won't be as verbose or colorful due to natural limitations, though no less eloquent. A little more precise and coherent, somehow sticks to the example text to a T exactly like Aethora v2 despite not adding it into the merge. Not as chatty as expected with the additional models, paces itself quite well.

I first made passthrough merges of the models listed above into separate parts that has aspects of what I wanted in the final model, then did a ties merge with said parts as seen below.
