+# 🩵 LunaMaid-12B
 
-This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).
+This is a multi-stage merge of pre-trained language models created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).
 
-## Merge Details
-### Merge Method
+## 🧬 Merge Overview
 
-This model was merged using the [Karcher Mean](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karcher_mean) merge method.
+**LunaMaid-12B** was produced through a **two-stage multi-model merge** using [MergeKit](https://github.com/arcee-ai/mergekit).  
+Each stage fuses models with complementary linguistic and stylistic traits to create a cohesive, emotionally nuanced personality.
 
-### Models Merged
