(urth) Inhumi in the Whorl

[Dan'l Danehy-Oakes]

Forgive the top posting; I am trying out posting from a new phone.

Is there any textual evidence that inhumi can duplicate the appearance (let
alone the personality) of a real, specific person well enough to replace him
or her?

I don't recall any and would want to have it before believing that Quetzal
had done as you suggest.

Quetzal has been Prolocutor for 33 years when Silk is enlightened.   I
assumed he had come aboard the Whorl only a year or two before he became
head of the Chapter, and then, as a shape-shifter, Quetzal took the place of
a promising human augur who was already in line to become Prolocutor.

The way Quetzal gets to the Whorl is, as far as I can tell, not explained in
the text.

I have a related question.  How do the inhumi travel from Green to Blue?  At
conjunction, the two planets are 105,000 miles apart (In Green's Jungles,
chap. 15).  This means most of the distance would be a vacuum, and so the
ability of inhumi to fly like bats would be of no help.  After all, birds
can't fly from the earth to the moon.

But if the inhumi use some sort of mysterious astral projection, then why do
they need to wait for conjunction to invade Blue?
