What's So Great About Ushas?

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.

BTW, did anybody ever make anything more of Juturna's line:

"Catch Catodon ... Cast out his conation."

It atually looks a bit like a cryptic crossword clue, but that 
doesn't help me much. It's easy enough to gloss it, but why Catodon 
(sperm whale?), why express herself in this way etc.

Also: what were she and Baldanders doing in Valeria's audience 
chamber anyway? Even if you can think of reasons why they might 
want to warn her, what good would such a warning do?
