Aquastors must therefore be true to their mnemonic blueprints, the same way our eyes must remain blue if genetically coded so. Thus Severian’s dog Triskele still has three legs (and will always have three, as long as Severian lines and the machine sustains his beloved pet’s quiddity), while Master Malrubius will never be anything but old, stern and wise. All this, of course, we learn rather late in Citadel, despite the fact that aquastors of Malrubius and Triskele have been appearing to Severian ever since Shadow. But are they the only aquastors to appear in the original quarter? Surely, it would not be above Gene Wolfe to sneak a few non-obvious, machine-fleshed eidola into the narrative. So let us investigate several potential cases and see if we can roust an aquastor or two.
There was so much salt in that thread about the poor casting decision.
The investigators tried to pinpoint the source of the flames.
But as systems designers master the use of computer- aided engineering and move toward silicon compilation, they will increasingly reduce those boardsful of logic to single VLSI chips.
