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.

That would be a rock Gyoll (Gjoll). The _river_ Gyoll was one of the
rivers surrounding Hel, land of the dead (except for those who went to
Valhalla). It is therefore significant that the river Gyoll runs
through a necropolis.

Or other relatives. It isn't that specific.
