Charles Reed quotes:
Here are Gene Wolfe's own words, which you can find in volume
6 of the Whorl archives:  "Typhon did not know about the inhumi [and]
would have done everything possible to keep them out of the Whorl if he
had."

This puts a painful kink in my theories. Of course, even if Typhon did not
know the target planets were full of blood-sucking monsters (and I never
imagined he did) it does not mean he wasn't manipulated by Quetzal on Urth.
And based on Quetzal's statements in LS3:1 (Slaves of Scylla) that still
seems probable to me.

Still this hurts.
