First Exodus theory revised

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.

Hm. yep. But also Piaton is dark-haired (while Typhon is blonde). Isn't that some sort
of clue to genealogy?

I think I detect some ring of truth to this idea.  The Kypris relationship by itself
might be enough to turn Echidna and most of her brood against Typhon/Pas. But if you
are bringing outside offspring into the picture also, that would probably seal it.

>His attempts to produce an heir with Echidna just weren't working out

I hadn't thought of it so directly. Echidna's kids are mostly female and the two males
Tartaros and Hierax, are sub-standard in some way? (Tartaros' problem is obvious but I
can't remember what Hierax's problem was...too violent or death loving? I forget).
