In the tenth year of his autarchy, in the chapter called "Ressurection,"
Severian writes, "old, twisted Father Inire, alive so long beyond the span of
his short-lived kind." After ten years of working with Inire and the noble
Hierodules O,B&F, I'm sure Severian knew what he was talking about, and that
the Hierodules truly live merely a score of years.
