I thought of the Ymar story right after posting the message - one
of those nice little flashes which can fool you into thinking that
what you've said actually makes sense :)
Triskele *looked* dead but Sev doesn't say that he actually was
dead. He doesn't seem to have any of the vagueness resurrected
humans seem to experience.
On a different note, I think Sev's little episodes where he thinks
he might be insane could point to key Sev1/Sev2 divergences.
Something to look out for on my next trawl through NS ...
