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.

It may be that this fantasy was concocted from the idea that Typhon's astronomers,
were so wrong in predicting the rate of decrease in the sun's output.

Also contributing might be the Saltus caloyer proclaiming that the New Sun's dual
role was to remove the black worm eating the heart of the sun and to vanquish the
guys in the oceans like Abaia, Scylla and Arioch.

Some think that the Apu Punchau eclipse was the result of Tzadkiel's ship zooming 
in to plant a black hole in the sun at the perfect time to start causing trouble on
Urth during Typhon's rule.

Relies on the assmuptions that Typhon and megatherians were bad like monsters and demons
and Tzadkiel was this cosmically powerful angel and into judgement and even punishment. 
The text really doesn't tell us any of this stuff. Sounds more like the Bible or something.
