Typhon and Quetzal - important correction

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.

Oops! My mistake. You said "Quetzal is the only *inhumu* who is...Dionysus."
Duh.

Well, all I can say is that I don't believe that (anymore). I think that
entire inhumi race is Dionysus. I'm still developing the explanation but
note that it is not Quetzal's name that is associated with Dionysus, but the
name of the inhumi race.

I was confused by this as well once upon a time, but I think the Dionysus
parallels continue into the Short Sun after Quetzal is dead, and before the
Whorl launches prior to Quetzal boarding the Whorl.
