This has a passing resemblance to Pleknu Gamna-zoh /plEk nu gam na zA./
(A. = back rounded open), "Those Who Fell From Stars", a people from an
old story of mine who's name (as well as one other phrase in the story)
are the inspiration for my still-not-created 2nd-and-a-half conlang
"Mother Language".

But Pleknu Gamna-zoh were alien invaders.

I guess the similarity ends there :)
