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.

> Looking over the Gevers interview (Magus of many suns) earlier andintrigued by one of Wolfes comments. ?He is asked "Does Silk/Horn takean active >part via astral projection in the events of BotNS?Specifically as the "ghost" of Malrubius?" ?Wolfe replies "Yes but nota leading part." ?What does everyone >make of this? Does anyone thinkthat Silk/Horn makes appearances in the New Sun books? ?What aboutMalrubius being an Aquastor? ?Is that still valid?

Just taking a quick look through New Sun, I'd say pg. 77 of Shadow and
Claw is the only plausible one, unless Severian is mistaken or the
Rajan lying to him on the other occasions.

Now, if he was ignoring the last part of the question, more
possibilities open up.
