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.

well, first you must realize there are only a few people with blue eyes.  Mamelta is one of them.  On page 423 of litany of the long sun, &quot;soon, he felt he would encounter Orpine, old patera pike, and his mother, each in the appropriate state of decay.&quot; ... p 424 &quot;quite soon now, as the swift floater sailed over a landscape grown liquid, his mother would come to kiss him good night&quot; ... he resolved not to sleep until she came.&quot;

then, on page 435 silk encounters a faceless body who makes him think of patera pike (p 437) before he awakens mamelta. on p 454 her eyes are a startling blue deeper than silks own. also, &quot;there was something familiar something horrible he struggled to deny in her smile.&quot; also on 473 as he looks out into the origin of man in the stars he peers up at her unclothed loins.

In a later dream it says, mamelta, who was kypris, but I must find the place.

the outsider speaks in a male and female voice - and one of those voices is kypris.
