Father Inire as Dionysus

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 think he?s just a baddie, without too much symbolic overloading.

Agia reckons she controls him, and it seems a fair assessment.  Of course, he may be happy enough with his side of the bargain.
As for his name, he is clearly mad and his shipmates referred to him as a ?header? or head case.  Due to a period of imposed political correctness, perhaps in the Machine Era, such names are no longer used.
