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 don't want any confusion about this. Although Hy said she wanted to 
take lessons from Xiphias I don't recall any that she actually *did* it. 
Also, Hy didn't just best the pilot, she nearly blinded her. She tried 
to gouge her eyes out, right?

"Auk took the seat nearest him. "If you want me to, I can get
somebody else to do this. Even that pilot. I'd have one of ours sit
here to watch her."
"She's blind," Silk told him. He threw a lever on the instrument
panel. "Hyacinth blinded her. I saw it."
~ Exodus, chap 15
