"Ah, love is in San's ship! San and I are destined to die young, without it, but you have hope. Sira su moran pieeh, da forst cann mi pieeh sah, pieeh sahir, pieeh saann." Dramatically, our purple friend clutched at his chest and fell on the floor. Then sat up. "I should apply to Danger Service—"

We laughed until tears ran down our faces. "I don't think Danger Service ever quotes Iosen of Ka! Thordes poetry that they do consists of counting in Kan, not the good stuff."

I got the romantic look as I counted from one to ten. "Piera. Ntat. Sesen. Fi. Jesur!" I threw an arm over my eyes. "Ek. Nee! Kierae poun veseeh!" Ended with both arms in the air, like Queen Mariet in the last episode, supposedly the Queen of Thorde. It didn't have a unified government, and few provs even had a queen. We often watched the Earthan vid to spot mistakes, put there to test Sigan Mas students, at the request of DS.
