The anonymous letter writer

Unknown. Writes the High Tongue in a learned hand — clearly
learned the script rather than been raised in it, which would rule
out a slug-man. Has read at least four of Vothrog’s
pamphlets
. Signed nothing.

The note

Left at the cell’s safe house drop point
before the Copper Ghetto meeting in Turn 01. Selindi
produced it in Turn 04:

I have read three of your papers. The fourth came to me by
accident. The argument is not wrong — only incomplete. You speak
of the spark but not of the vessel it was taken from. There is a
name you do not yet know: Cheth-of-the-Salt-Shore. Find what
was done to that name and your argument will have teeth it
currently lacks.

What this implies

  • The writer knew to point Vothrog at Cheth before anyone in the cell had spoken the name.
  • The writer has not identified themselves and has made no
    further contact
    through Turn 15.
  • Their motive is unknown.
