Lacking greater context (I need to find that original message),
I'm not exactly sure what Qov intended. I do wonder why you
assume that {muv} means "enroll, enlist". In all of my
dictionaries, it just says, "join". I don't note any canon
usage, either, so it is hard to argue with Qov's useage.
Meanwhile, other verbs come to mind, simply for consideration,
not as some assumption that I know what she meant more than she
does: DuD, 'el, mojlaw', ngoS...
