You could say the man writing and the dog sleeping (guarding, really) are also yin and yang. But even so, does this get us anywhere?

[Mystimus @MyTheseus]

Has anyone ever noticed that the chapter titled "A Sleeping Dog" includes one dog that is not asleep (p241-242), and two cats that ARE asleep (p250) in the shape of the yin/yang symbol?

“Where are the ZAPADI 3” (p75)

ZAPADI, converted to numbers and summed: 26 + 1 + 16 + 1 + 4 + 9 = 57, or 19 * 3.

[Mystimus @MyTheseus]

P74 refers to S as human jetsam. Jetsam, as opposed to flotsam, refers to something DELIBERATELY thrown overboard by a ship’s crew in distress. Is this word choice significant?

[Mystimus @MyTheseus]

S’s xebec is a sailing SHIN - the Hebrew letter from which the English “S” originates. https://t.co/T5M0Pf2RR4
