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.

So: somehow Nessus arises later in SHORT SUN, with
severian and Merryn in tow; we did indeed have an
inkling of this before, especially when in his NOVA
EXPRESS interview Wolfe said that SHORT SUN takes us
into the world of Sev's childhood. So, the
possibilities:
1) Blue is Urth
2) Green is Urth
3) Some form of space and/or time travel is involved,
or perhaps a wandering in dream.
I have a feeling Severian is biologically related to
Silk somehow.
Kevin: any publication dates for GREEN and WHORL yet?
