Lae'ta and....
Have a problem.

20 pages of story for Danaiette and I have found nothing like what you say of that storyline. I'm just seriously confused now. Umm, the only thing I can think of is that her sister, Kaiet, might have done something along those lines at some point.

Also, I can sort of see the story that you are painting, and with it, obviously the time picture. Correct me if I am wrong, but is not this whole storyline in a sort of forestry scenery? Danaiette's whole mortal time was in a little fishing cove. The only thing they seem to have in common is Time, but not Place.

This actually makes sense to me. I have decade gaps in the short story, because time moves so differently once Danaiette goes up with D'omkhet. Thing is that i was sure that you would write stuff that was happening on Elyniah while she/I was focusing on the above'ness. Again, let me know if I am off.

Language'wise; Lae is familiar. One thing I haven't yet told you is that meaning of words can still carry even when they are reversed. This is how a lot of people were aptly named without the conscious knowledge of it. Best example:

Rustovich - abuse of power.

Why?

R ust ov ich - Tsu'ich

I haven't quite found out how all letters are relevent if they are put in in addition to actual words, but no doubt it will come to me. The point is:

Tsu = power
Ich = abuse of...

ust = tsu

Ooh, here are my favs so far:

Yhmana - Yh'm'ana

Yh = fear
m = in between as it is here, commonly means land, sort of like our 'ia' at the end of lands names.
ana = water.

Yh'm'ana (name of where Danaiette lives) = Worry waters


Funmata - Fun'm'ata

Fun = primitive, old fashioned
m = as above
ata = beasts, cattle

Funmata (name of the Second House) = Primitive animals

That's all on my private laugh fest.

God, does that even make sense?? Really doesn't answer the Lae'ta question, eh? Let me get back to you on that...
