Awesome. I'd assumed {naDev} was functioning purely like an adverb, and
blinded myself to any other possibility apparently :/

Thanks.

You&#39;re parsing this sentence incorrectly.<br>
<br>
{naDev} is a noun. {naDev jIHtaHbogh} is a noun. {naDev jIHtaHbogh<br>
meq} is a noun-noun construction.<br>
<br>
Also, think about what it would mean if {naDev} were an adverbial<br>
instead of a noun. The sentence would mean *&quot;Now, here (in this<br>
present location), I will tell you my reason for being.&quot;<br>
