Yeah, when I wrote that I suspected it *might* have been the other way 
around--but I decided to just go for it. And here's why: The events are 
so closely connected in time it doesn't really matter.

Andrew, I think you and I have discussed before that one wants more 
evidence than "Well, who else could it be?", but there really are a very 
limited number of night choughs in the Long/Short Sun story. Even if 
Silk had not discovered an astral old man in Pike's room, the existence 
of an astral Oreb would be a strong hint that the Rajan was nearby.
