Essim had just led Mahoun out of the cave and then beamed him up to the Klingon High Council member's ship without his consent.

SKI: Councilmember Qa'bar explains his association with Mahoun.

[226] Hmm, that's a little weird. You try picking a prefix for "They gave you to me." [236] Gaa! I keep misinterpreting 'et as et (French for 'ej) and then changing it to 'ej and then getting confused. I hope I caught or un-caught them all.
----
Also I'm writing the final 'ay''a' now and I don't want this to be like LOST where the character-driven arcs are resolved but followers are unsatisfied because the mysteries are not cleared up. I think I have gathered all the loose ends into a happy snarl, if not a neat knot. The title will be answered. If you have a favourite outstanding question or unresolved conflict you'd like to see finished, let me know asap before I finish outlining.
