Random lightbulbs that went off over my head while re-reading Liveships (spoilers!)

[Nuytsia]

I just started re-reading Liveships (fun!) and after like 2 pages found something interesting I hadn't noticed the first time, and after 10 pages found about half a dozen interesting snippets, so thought I'd start this thread!

This first one is more in the vein of 'oh I didn't remember that!' than a real lightbulb moment, but it says that Maulkin's false eyes actually denote the fact that he had 'knowledge of both lives'.
So, as we know, serpents lose their dragon memories and vice versa during the transformation, but there are apparently certain individuals like Maulkin that retain some memories.

I guess it makes sense that these individuals become tangle leaders.
