Making Tussah a liar about the "son not born of my body".  But aside from that, wouldn't at least one of the councillors (who knew Tussah and were lookoing for his son) have made some comment to the effect that he looked identical?  or wouldn't somnebody else who knew Tussah?

So Typhon's favourite concubine was his mother?  No wonder Echidna was pissed.

I think I'll stick to the conventional approach in which the meaning of a book is found in that book and not some completely other book that says stuff that don't make sense in the context of the first one!
