Sev?<br><br>As I recall, he had a dream with images from Severian's memory (I feel I should call it a Memory), and Severian had a dream with images from Baldanders's memory or thoughts or future or something. But that's a good question. Maybe Baldanders stopped dreaming? Maybe it was a random lie?<br>
<br>> The Wall is a Long Sun class colony ship, isn't it? Sticking up out of the ground like the ships in the Citadel. Either incomplete or mostly buried. <br><br>It seems too circular for that, unless you think it's the end layer, like the first coil of a pot. But I don't think building a Whorl-class ship on Earth or Urth, instead of in space, makes any sense at all (which is my answer to John Watkins's question).<br><br>Jerry Friedman<br>
