Because the X-group were born blind, they ahve no real conception of sight. They do not "see" clairvoyantly; their clairvoyant experience is limited to senses other than sight. Eventually they learned (through telepathy) to experience light and sight, by then it was too late.

The X-group members can distinguish color, but they perceive it as testur, i.e. "green is fuzzy."

Only the Family Proper and a handful of others know of the X-Group's blindness. The Genetic Board found out in the first month of normal-rate gestation, and wanted to abort; they were overruled by both Brynhilde and Rik (who, at age 5, was quite a forceful child just in the prime of Wakmarrel School training.)


Xenia once wrote a "stirring sequence of poems dedicated to those from the Empire whom the Hoisters had claimed as their own." The images included "Jef Leonov's skin dark against Umar's own tan; Rik and his mentor Martin Adelhardt in twin space-black Imperial Navy uniforms; Vashon and the President of Borshallan Artificial Intelligences, a wonderful short woman with a mind like one of her computers. And Sanjay, of course, always Sanjay."
