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.

One more thing - after Sandwalker digs up the honey and the the hive to feed Seven girls waiting, her belly is described as round like a melon, and he says dont lean on him too much or he will split.  Then later his sleeping place is described as a place where bushes could be planted.  Do they need to plant somehow to rest?  

Some of the imagery associated with them is decidedly not human, if we take that splitting when full comment as anything like a real admonishment rather than a joke.

That this tree spoke to the unseen no more than him, engendering no babes in women."
