Qov ([email protected])



Essim accidentally escaped from the cave and is working to literally cover her tracks so the soldiers can't find their way to Mahoun through her.

[216] Yes, this sentence lacks a question-forming device, be it word or a particle. But the implied question is rhetorical anyway. [251] Should be {nuqDaq ghaH Mahoun'e'} but the sergeant is cutting to the chase with the short and slightly ungrammatical version.
