lots of stuff

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.

Inire.

Severian.

Thecla.

There's another trinity for you.  Quite literally the father who created the
Autarchy and brought it to its end, his (presumably figurative) son, the
scion of the father's ages of planning and manipulation (including possibly
genetic manipulation?) and the pretty-literal ghost.

I kind of like the notion that, contra Witz, Severian is the logos of Inire,
not the Increate.
