This happened\nafter Horn left, which is why he has never heard of\nthe Divine Silk.\"\n\nBut as Kypris's offer to upload Silk into Mainframe as\na partner for Pas (EXODUS FROM THE LONG SUN, end of\nchap 15) is recorded by Horn as author of TBOTLS, he\nwas certainly aware of the possibility that Silk had\naccepted it.\n\n--Nick Gevers."
