So there's been some delay as a result of, among
other things, qep'a'. (All of you should go next
year. It's a blast.) So I should recap before
jumping back into mIl'oD veDDIr SuvwI'.
Basically, 'avtanDIl and roStevan have come
across this strange warrior, wearing a sabre
bear pelt, who went on to wound or kill a dozen
of roStevan's attendants, which upset roStevan
mightily. Eventually he came to believe the odd
warrior was an evil spirit sent to torment him.
But his daughter, tIna'tIn, was not so sure, and
promised 'avtanDIl she would marry him if he
would spend a year searching for the warrior of
the sabre bear pelt and determining for certain whether he was spirit or man.
And so, the story continues...

Ah, that's a better excuse. I would have
understood it sooner had he said wanI'vam Dun

he's intending to declare to the empire that it
is ruled on account of 'utlh-dude's sword.

SKI: 'avtanDIl and tIna'tIn talk a little,
loQ -- LOL
then 'avtanDIl goes emo for a while before going
to roStevan to tell him what he's off to do.
The communications among the management of this
kingdom is seriously more touchy-feely than in my
company with is aboriginal female owned. I think it's very sweet.
