(And how can one talk of revenge when Severian was innocent in Agilus's
killing? Revenge for what, for Severian's having not died in the duel which
they contrived *apparently* in order to kill him and take his possessions?
For Severian's employment as an executioner? Maybe for some deranged person,
but very little in Agia points to derangement.)

Unfortunately I have no answers, but I think *this*, in conjunction with
others, is the kind of thing that's supposed to be studied by the reader.
Well, if GW expects to be debated for 300 years, we won't be around when
someone finally grasps it all.
