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 always thought the retconned story of Theseus and the novascaputs with the enormous sea ship was indicative of the size of the monsters like abaia. the student's creation must face that enormous sea creature that dyes the ship. Those stories always seemed to reflect both thematically and factually to Severian's main narative.
