Connotations[?]
Meaning may be closer to ‘presence’ than ‘physical touch’. Paarthurnax’s pause (as though searching for the right word) may also indicate this word’s meaning is more complex, perhaps related to time or the Elder Scrolls in an as of yet unknown way.
Etymology[?]
May derive from los, present tense conjugation of kos ‘to be’.
