Says Incanto:\n\n\"Many people believe that the inhumi may begin to breed on Blue as well as\nGreen. Quite some time ago, I theorized that they could not, that their eggs\nwere hatched by the heat of the short sun, which is not sufficiently intense\non Blue. Was I correct?\"\n\nNotice how Fava hedges her answer, however, saying not yes, or absolutely,\nor gosh, you're really smart to have figured this out, Incanto, but instead:\n\"I think so.\"\n\nEither she has no idea what he's talking about (although she is the smartest\n\"girl\" at the schola), or she's having difficulty lying to her\npseudo-father. Moreover, given Horn's failure to grasp even the basics of\nscience, I believe his skills as a natural historian are probably just as\nskewed.\n\nSo perhaps the inhumi can breed on Blue (like alligators in sewers, heh heh)\nand interfering with components of their life cycle is part of the Great\nSecret. Is it possible that a newly-born inhumu must immediately be exposed\nto human blood--either directly or via its mother--in order to lay down a\ngeneral human imprint which becomes the core personality for the rest of its\nnatural life?\n\nRobert Borski\n\n\n\n\n\n*This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun."
