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.

Wolfe said that Quetzal was a recent arrival, and since I believe his 
mother fed on Tussah that sounds reasonable to me. But when that 
question was asked, no one knew about the other inhumi on Green. There 
has been no word from on high about the existence of inhumi on Urth. If 
Wolfe intended to retcon them in, then we should expect to see one or 
two during the Rajan's travels to Urth.
