What made you think of a >romantic connection between Sethra & Paarfi? Well, I agree that he doesn't seem her "type", but she's nearly godlike, and who am I to presume to know what her type is? I thought of it because there was some indication (probably prior topic, don't remember) that Paarfi gets his detailed information, however inaccurate, from Sethra, possibly even she enjoys feeding him bogus stories. So I have this picture in my mind of this affair going on and she's telling him wilder and wilder stories in her outstandingly successful attempt to woo him, because of course he is head over heels for her, who could resist her once she put her mind to something? Likely he is nothing more than a moment's diversion to her, like in _Dangerous Liasons_. Rachel
