Count me in the group who's almost sure it's him.

Who else would say "Well Met!", and not be in either party already?

I mean, ARGUABLY, Ardsley Wooster might, but I'm pretty sure that since
his name was read out as one of the fallen-in-battle by Albia, you
couldn't save *him* even with time travel.

Also, not many I can see who could get an "Oh no!" out of both Gil
and Tarvek.

Catching up on <https://twitter.com/Othar>: probably.
Only one tweet after last April, but that's where he's been.

Oh! I didn't know it was active again after the last post in 2014!

Thank you!

A distinct possibility, but then, so is the Shrike herself.

But on today's page, we are given the past and current history of
a person (or clank?) who has been resisting the zombies of Paris.
And is female, which I'm pretty sure Othar is not, unless some
*extremely* mad science has recently happened to him.

Ah, but take note of Collette's phrasing: "have brought _the person
responsible_ here to us."

But the "person" is identified as a swords*woman*, and is
referred to with the pronoun "she."

Wotthehell, the "person" may be the feminine equivalent of Yay.

Time (or the Foglios) will tell. Eventually. Maybe.

Ah, but the Othar twitter (which I had no idea until today had been
revived several years ago) gives a hint on who the Shrike is.

Of course, I am worried on what Zola is up to.

Oh! Why, yes, we _do_ in fact know someone who knows her way around
a blade and has a connection to Holfung-Borzoi and who might very
well be considered a ghost by some people, now that you mention
it!

I think we're all in danger of "spoiling" each other - but
when (if) all is revealed, I may have to ask where you are
seeing a hint. (And whether it was the right hint.)

And it seems that Othar has just been too busy to tweet,
but now he is back. He writes from a train to Paris...
which is where "we" are now...
