Hmm, given the conversation with Mora in which Horn basically tells her
she's going to be dead sexy when she grows up, in spite of being a big,
tough woman, my assumption has been that he was thinking of Chenille, not
Mucor. I had thought Auk for Inclito, but Blood is certainly a reasonable
speculation as well.

I thought it was Chenille and her father, Calde Tussah.
