Notes[?]

Appears as von- in vonmindoraan ‘incomprehensible idea’. Unknown whether this is intentional or a typo of vomindoraan. Appears to be used in dialogue to form a negative imperative (vosaraan ‘do not wait’, 000C64F6); more likely that vosaraan is a separate vocabulary word meaning ‘to hasten’ (li. ‘un-wait’)
