Merryn

This is Sean Whalen (prion). I think that all of Robert Borski's recent genealogical theories are possible, but I'm slightly worried about Merryn, because Wolfe has said that she is "probably" Severian's sister. Hopefully Wolfe will decide this in the Short Sun books. By the way, an oread is a mountain nymph, not a sea nymph. Other types of Graeco-Roman nymphs, in case anyone wants to know, are: Okeanids/Oceanids: daughters of Okeanos, nymphs of various water features Nereids: daughters of Nereus, nymphs of the Mediterranean Sea Naiads: water nymphs Dryads: (oak) tree nymphs Meliai: nymphs of ash trees prion
