Neat Little Chart

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'd like to see a neat little chart
But I'm not meticulous enough to construct it.
Someone here could certainly do it.

4 rows to the the chart

row 1 =3D a chronology of the events of the narrative in chronological
sequence*
row 2 =3D nominates the narrator is of each of event
row 3 =3D status of protagonist:  Horn   Silk-Horn   Silk
row 4 =3D where Silk is at this time point (multiple places - but specific)

Did I miss anything useful to note?

* =3D (but when to put Urth events in sequence?)

Anyway - I've been finding it useful to think about lots of folks questions
and comments relating to the flawed version of this chart in my imagination.
