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 greater mystery is involved in those straps to Agilus' mask that don't go anywhere.  Revenge can be relentless, but there do seem to be connections between them that need examination.

For whatever reason, I've always felt that Agia's revenge for Agilus was only part of her motivation.  Hethor has a thing for Severian that goes beyond Agia's. They stalk him across urth, threaten and save him, and Agia replaces Vodalus!  There is SOMETHING else going there, IMO.
