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.

It was established that Scylla possessed Oreb after Pas was resurrected. 
She is on the run.

Silk is the phallus because he is sent to Mainframe to supplement Pas 
after the resurrection.

No. Sand's sacrifice was apparently required, but Jaculus only died when 
Pas left because Pas was keeping him alive. A woman was required--Auk 
assumed she would have to be sacrificed but apparently she only needed 
to be presented. By the same token, unless Oreb was being artificially 
kept alive, he only needed to perch in front of a Sacred Window or 
monitor to be reintegrated.
