Pam calls me on my biology bluff:

That's the one.

Of course! Nysalor's dad was a neotenic sea squirt, done and dusted!
OK, maybe not. But the "real answer", to put it in Adamseque terms,
is "What do we mean by 'Nysalor', and "How do we reach an empirical
definition of 'Chaos'?"
It's a fair bet that modern Dara Happans know what the Orlanthi
(and others) mean when they say "Chaos". Nasty slithery stuff like
Broos and Gorp, right? So what in the Fifth Heck does that have to
do with Nysalor, or Rufelza, and the like? It's barking, they are.
Slainte,
Alex.
