I am still thinking about your fasinating idea about the trees eating and
recombining with Horn in the pit.

I am not convinced, quite, but I agree that Horn's time in the pit was a
death-and -ressurection experience.    The similarity with the bit in THE
URTH OF THE NEW SUN where Severian dies and is re-embodied (on the Ship,
after a disasterous fall) is significant, I think.

Just starting my third rereading of RETURN TO THE WHORL

(But I'm increasingly convinced that Blue and Green are Ushas and
broken-free Lune,  and the the Whorl has returned home.  Yes)
