Hierodules and Time

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I found the reference to mirrors to be interesting, particularly the idea of 
the Hierodules's attempts to mold our history as a sort of drawing in a 
mirror. When Wart tries to do this he gets it upside down - an "M" instead 
of a "W". So if the Hierodules get everything upside down, what is the 
*real* result they were trying to achieve?
