(urth) Like a good Neighbor

[Sergei SOLOVIEV]

I don' think it was symbolic death to Severian. In BotNS resurrections play
a very different role, there is a series of them and compositionally
the importance of each episode grows until Severian understands that
they are resurrections. Moreover, he doesn't understand what energy
is involved until the moment (in the UotNS) when he tries to heal
inside the Tzadkiel spaceship.
