Initially I transcribed it as {borgh}=2C but eventually I decided to avoid =
transliterating any names that didn't already appear in canon. So I've used=
{janluq pIqarD} and {wo'rIv}=2C but most of the rest are untransliterated.

Since brevity is a factor here I'd avoid the latter=2C but {qaS} definitely=
works.

I'll take that on board. I might skip over {'ej DaH DIvI' luyotchoH}=2C bec=
ause the following sentence - "and this time there may be no stopping them"=
- also begins with {'ej DaH} and I think it might sound a little weird.
Thanks for the comments. Keep 'em coming!
