When I heard this, I actually considered it a vocative: "Listen, son of
Kahless" (presumably a term for today's Klingon, especially a young one.  A
follower of Kahless).  After all, I don't know if we ever even heard that
Kahless HAD a child, let alone one famous enough to have songs sung about
him!

Ugh, I don't think I can really look at the rest.  Not your fault, SovwI';
you had lousy material to work with.
