Emai! Thanks for the info and the language tips; I had looked at
<i>mizec pyrera</i>, but I wasn't sure how to use it, or whether it would
be appropriate. As for the adjectives, I initially got the gender wrong
for <i>adhnáe</i> and failed to go back and correct it, while I
somehow failed to treat <i>otre</i> as an adjective at all. (You're
right; Russian has the same features, and the same pitfalls.)
<p>With regard to your Alemeological answers (I really like that word), the
explanation of the Cadhinorian patriachates makes sense, and emphasizes
the organization and coherence of the official paganism (as opposed to
many polytheistic systems), although I'm aware that there is plenty of
local and philosophical variety. The question of the icëlani
remains interesting (I am also interested in the other lesser-known
nonhumans, such as the elcari and múrtani, and the gdeoni if they
existed); they're definitely hard to picture. Some interesting passages
on pre-human hominids (although not necessarily relevant to this
particular question) can be found in the later part of Bruce Chatwin's
book <i>The Songlines</i>. Anybody else have any ideas?
