Great One, may I offer you my praise on your elegant and beautiful theory. It's such a joy to be present at the birth of such a wonderful child, even when the birth is a difficult one. Commenting from the perspective of an Ox or an Ass, I too spotted the Kipling connection (the Red Flower in particular was a dead give away). "They will hold a jungle Council at the Rock, and then--and then--I have it!" said Bagheera, leaping up. "Go thou down quickly to the men's huts in the valley, and take some of the Red Flower which they grow there, so that when the time comes thou mayest have even a stronger friend than I or Baloo or those of the Pack that love thee. Get the Red Flower." Great One, did you know that Mowgli means "Frog" in um, Hindi, I guess. Nobody could write mystical tales like Kipling, although I must go and read Graves' The White Goddess because it sounds interesting. My humble praises and blessings on your child! I too always thought there was something vaguely oedipal about Severian. He comes from himself and goes to himself. No man is an island (or a whorl) but he seems to come close. I thought that Dorcas was his mother becuase it seemed to make sense at the time. That would make him his own father.. Is this biologically possible, Great One? Wouldn't both halves of his DNA chromasomes have to be identical? Is that allowed? I've always loved Dorcas the most and I think she would make a great mother, but I will transfer a little of my adoration to you for politeness sake. You don't mind if I worship you a little in my simple minded way? No? Thank you, Great One. Behind our efforts, let there be found our efforts.
