Typhon's nature

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.

Well, clearly Cyriaca's story is not entirely accurate. After all, she
thinks the Citadel is deserted and no one but the Autarch knows about
it. But I think it's clear that Typhon's actions are the source of the
story.

(Jonas, by contrast, seems to put the foundation of the Citadel much
too early, before the first empire.)
