Silk/Horn in the Matachin Tower

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.

Is there indication in *The Book of the New Sun *that any of the clients at
the time of Severian's childhood might in fact be Silk/Horn?  If Wolfe had
the vision and plan for the "Solar Cycle" in this depth back while writing *
TBONS*, that would be most impressive.
