Feel free to borrow it. I appreciate your devoting so much thought to my
problem, but one of my rules is that the history of my conlangs is immutable--if
it happened, it happened, and I cannot change it, much as I would like to some
times.
Of course, this does not prevent different groups from remembering the same
events differently; Rihana and Hemana (Jasas) have very different versions of
some of their early conflicts, for example, but theoretically I "know" what is
true.
