While Fowler also leans uncomfortably toward the pedophiliac reading, I
don't get the idea that he is actually lusting after young people, but
after the Lord Of the Night's children (49.27, 50.19). Such are
children emotionally and psychologically (because of the trauma of
rocketblast and the erasure that is treatment), but not biologically.
He's a psychospiritual pedophile, but his victims could be adults.
At the same time came the foxes unto Pointsman, saying, Who is the
greatest in the Kingdom of the Night? And Pointsman called a little
child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say
unto you, Except ye be traumatized and abreacted, and become as little
children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of the Night. Whosoever
therefore shall erase himself as this little child, the same is greatest
in the Kingdom of the Night. And whoso shall use one such little child
in my name receiveth my Realpolitik dreams.
The Book 18:1-5 (EPV)
