Pike's ghost

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.

Something just occurred to me this morning.  Mamelta and Rigoglio (as well as chems, but they mightn?t know or notice) are not the only people who were contemporaneous with Typhon.  All the Sleepers were, and there must have been hundreds if not thousands in the cities SilkHorn travelled through.
Typhon made a big point of the fact that peoples? recognition of his face was a vital part of his rule (and his family walked through peoples? dreams).
So how could Silk be a clone of Typhon without it being talked about?
