I really don't feel that I  completely understand what happened on top
of the airship. Why did Mucor possess Horn (that _is_ what happened,
right?)? Did Mucor "push" Horn off, or did she have nothing to do with
it? Was Silk going to jump?

Throughout the scene on top of the airship, I get a feeling of building
menace. You _know_ something bad is going to happen, but it's not clear
why--and when it happens, it's not clear what happened.

Can anybody help me understand this better?

Peter
