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.

Severian still have it by the time he returns to Nessus as Autarch, or
does he lose it sometime after he reads the "Tale of a Boy Called Frog"
to little Severian, perhaps around Lake Diuturna, where both
<italic>Terminus Est</italic> and the Claw are destroyed?

Citadel, chapter 34: Severian still has it when he returns to the
Citadel; he intends to keep it, and hopes that the sight of him
carrying it will inspire more reading.
