It's a bit of a leap to call him a "time traveller," but not much--the mirrors could be used that way and if Inire's a hierodul then he might be a time traveller in the sense that F, B, and O are--i.e., living backwards (like Merlin) and maybe "skipping" big chunks of time.

MORE PROOF INIRE IS RUDESIND'S MASTER:

"The old Autarch told us you were his sentinel in the House Absolute, and now we know you're a servant of Father Inire's."
"I am," the old man said. "I have that honor, and it's his letter I carry."

.

Is this obviously  still a question, Dan'l? I thought this was accepted as truth. I could have missed something however.
