A Quick Question

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.

It's extratextual and was mentioned in an interview conducted by Robert
Frazier for a fanzine called Thrust in 1982:

Frazier: "Perhaps we could end this by telling something about Severian
that doesn't end up in the books."

Wolfe: "There was the time when Severian encountered assassins in the
Secret House who had come to kill Ymar, an autarch a chiliad dead. I may
write about that sometime. And the year he spent as a slave of the
Ascians. But I doudt that either will make it into print."

The interview may be reprinted in the new Wright book, but I'm not sure,
as my copy has not arrived yet.
