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.

Right, Jordan.
When OBW starts 1) Horn has died in the pit and been resurrected, 2) 
traveled to Parajuco and boarded a ship to Green, 2) Died on Green and 
had his "spirit" transmutted to Silk, 3) Wondered all around the Whorl 
4) met Pig, and 5) been carried to Gaon to become Rajan.

All the battle sequences in IGJ, the astral-travels to Green to defeat 
the inhumi, the astral-travel to Urth, the battle with the inhumi on 
Blue, the killing of Jahlee-- all this occurs after the Rajan has 
escaped from Gaon and after the events on the Whorl recorded in RttW.
