Whoo! I love these answers. Some are so snide:

Some are opaque---we -still- don't know about Pike's ghost!

And some are ambiguously helpful. Yes, it was a legitimate expedition. But
-why- would Q like "a thriving colony of human beings on Green"??? Lunch???
The Kypris answer to Mint is nice, and Pike as Blood's father is excellent!

And I love the answer to my own question: "Severian is a form of the
Outsider." But I'm still frustrated. Mantis, do you think he might sit for
a second series?
