Silk's Suicide. On re-reading and reviewing mantis' comments I see where more clearly where the suicide theory comes from. On first hearing this, it seemed so out of character for Silk, but then Silk running off madly after Hyacinth and abandoning the landing party seemed so "out of character" too. I guess if he had bad enough for Hy to abandon the mission the Outsider gave him, then suicide in grief at her passing is reasonable too. I know I'm going on about this but I think his running off after Hy and not going to Blue was more of a shock to me than Queztal <sp?> being revealed as an inhumus.
