Drawing on a remark John Clute made a few days ago:
are we sure of the fate of those inhumi who, however
long ago, ingested Neighbor blood and thus became
equal to the Neighbors in puissance? The inhumi who in
Horn's time infest the City on Green clearly have a
relation to them, but their qualities seem to derive
from their human slaves, the "inhumans". Did the
original "Neighborly inhumi" survive in some other
guise? Specifically, are the Neighbors Horn encounters
not perhaps inhumi themselves?
