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 think *anyone* is postulating this. Marc believes the vines fed 
on reptiles and spit out inhumi.

I proposed that maybe they fed on Neighbors who were dream traveling 
trees (dryads) and thus their children have taken the /form/ of "vines". 
I don't think they are actual vines. But chopping down a chunk of a 
"vine" to make a staff from it has not robbed it of whatever 
dream-traveling powers it originally had.
