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.

All right, I'll accept that Jonas knows what he's talking about. The 
simplest explanation for the conversation the steersman overheard is 
that the deep voice was a commander subordinate to Abaia, not Abaia himself.

Even if Abaia didn't survive, Juturna and other sea people seem to 
believe in his agenda and they are capable of causing trouble. The new 
world of Ushas will have its "anvil."
