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.

  Were any embryos engineered to have a superior military intellect that were destined to conquer, Typhon-style?

I have said in the past that I think Silkhorn's military accomplishments in Gaon and Blanco were similar to those of Typhon as described by Rigoglio.  Like Typhon, he sided with the underdog in conflicts, and won.

But I don't think this is necessarily anything to do with genetics.  Silk has merged with Pas in Mainframe, and Horn downloads the merged entity into himself (i.e. Silk's old body).  So Typhon - as Pas - is present in the resulting, somewhat confused, personage.
