On dream travelers

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.

I don't know, but it IS kind of clear that Pleistorus is a god of battle, possibly the Thrakian version of Ares, and I think the text makes it a better case that it is Pleistorus who is missing and is Ahura Mazda, so if pressed I would say, Latro is Pleistorus, because I am not sure if in the Soldier books Ares and Plesitorus are distinct at all.
