You've taken a very different approach here. Rather than re-telling the story you have added a note (like a foot-note) that the details have changed, withouy trying to re-weave the story. The is easier to get right, but doesn't produce as nice a result. Maybe this is a good approach, it depends on how much effort you are willing/able to spend on the task. IF you do stick with this approach: it is "path_lookupat", not "path_lookup_at".
