Subject: (whorl) Why the Whorl left early
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2001 08:46:37 +0100 (BST)

Thanks to everyone who responded to my utopian
theorisings; I was testing the waters with some ideas
for a paper on TBSS...

One point: I think that GW intends us to understand
that the Whorl leaves very quickly after Silk and Co
return to it after RTW. Reason: Silk-in-Mainframe and
the corporeal Silk don't want Pas descending to Blue
with Mainframe and all, for the reasons Silk gave
Remora and because the Whorl needs Pas and Mainframe
where they are. Thus: emergency departure, far swifter
than M'to would have thought possible.
