On the question of what the 1996 narrative is, I'd like to point out that Renall and I have had many talks, both on this forum and in AIM logs I've posted here, regarding the nature of different narratives in Umineko, and how many of them don't seem to have any sort of 'real-world' counterpart, like much of EP7's contents. I wouldn't worry too much about what 1996's narrative is for "Prime", but focus on why you're seeing it, what it means, and what it says.
On the question of the Summoner's identity, I will only remind you all that Walter is confident that he believes this Forgery is a confession to the 1996 crime. At the very least, he is insisting that it's penned by the culprit of that incident, and so the Summoner is probably that author's avatar.
