He seemed to have no confusion about\nthis, but still did not mention that he had killed Hoof and Hide's father.\nHorn even knowing he was in not in his body, still believed himself very\nmuch alive through most of the three books.  It was only when Silk admitted\nhe was alive and Horn either released himself or Silk released him that he\nmentions killing the boys' father.\n\nalga,\nThanks for the info on which description of Scylla, Wolfe based his\ncharacter on.  The only thing that drew me to the first description was the\nline\n\"Other accounts say that she was changed into a lark by the gods and her\nfather into a hawk.\"\nrelating to Scylla residing in Oreb.\n\n\nDennis/Endy\nhttp://home.mindspring.com/~endymion9/index.htm\n\n\n*This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun."
