Mists of Peach and Plum
Normal Sudoku Rules Apply. Place the digits 1-9 in each row, column, and 3x3 box with no repetition.
-Fog. Place correct digits to lift the fog.
-Renban. Digits in a plum line comprise an unordered set of consecutive digits.
-Entropy lines. Every three adjacent digits on a peach line must contain one low (123), one mid (456), and one high (digit). Two-cell lines must contain digits from two different entropic groups.
-Killer lines. All lines in the grid are also Killer lines. Digits on a killer line may not repeat and sum to the value given in the most top-left cell of the line.
Not all values are known, but all lines are labelled with a value.
---A "?" represents any value and may or may not be the same as another line labeled "?"
---An "X" represents a value to be determined by the solver; it is the same value in all appearances.
-Lines do not branch.

For me a 3/5 difficulty, but I've not used the X-rule, therefore I think I've missed something that would make the puzzle easier. Nevertheless a beautiful one, thanks for setting.

I've posted this as 3/5 difficulty, but I would not be surprised if it turns out as 2/5. Rate as you see fit. Have fun!
