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.

Art says somewhere in Wizard that he saw the screaming faces of 
those who had been sacrificed to Grengarm by the Easterlings at 
ummm the Mountain of Fire or whatever it's called.

How that fits with Garseg's face in Setr, I'm not sure. After 
reading Knight, I was convinced that Setr had eaten Garsecg, who I 
thought must have been the original king of the Sea Aelf, and 
therefore Setr had his face & coud assume his form. That would have 

fitted with the faces in Grengarm, but it doesn't seem to get 
supported by much else. 

On the other hand, Garsecg appears to be much older than Arnthor 
and Morcaine, his supposed siblings ...
