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 lean toward Patera Remora. He is undeniably weird, but I find his name to be the biggest 
hint.  One of the defining characteristics of Inhumi is that they get around by being 
stowaways, hitching rides without permission. And that is the primary characteristic of the 
remora fish.

There is a difficult to define but undeniable centrality to the fish theme across the whole
Sun series. Also, an augur's clothing would seem to be an ideal way to disguise one's
Inhumi identity.
