God/Increate in the New Sun

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.

The sun was restored by its being implanted with the White Fountain,
Severian's "star." The WF was created by the mating of Severian and
Apheta, and became his so-to-speak alter ego, linked to him so that he
could summon it in the time of the Stone Village to arrive in his own
time. At least, that's (in sketch) how I remember it.
