I was reviewing the altar scene, and I just noticed the following sentence, where Horn is narrating the manifestation of the Outsider: "I knew that he was there, that if I turned, I would see them." (285)
Is that "them" a typo? If not, what does it mean?
When first manifesting at the opening of =Nightside=, the Outsider speaks with multiple -- "paired" -- voices. Wolfe may have the Trinity in mind, or two of its components.
