Would "chol" work in this sentence? I'm always uncertain of which
English idiomatic uses are okay in Klingon; can "chol" have a temporal
meaning? chol poH bIr is certainly pithy, though.
And the mottos (tuq mu'mey) from other major houses in the series,
because mottos are fun to do:
House Arryn: "As High As Honor." jen; batlh rur
House Baratheon: "Ours is the Fury." QeH wIghaj maH'e'
House Greyjoy: "We Do Not Sow." mapochbe'
House Lannister: "Hear Me Roar!" jIjachqu' 'e' HIQoy
House Martell: "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken" DItormoHbe'lu',
DISIHbe'lu', DIghorbe'lu'
House Tully: "Family, Duty, Honor." qorDu', Qu', batlh
House Tyrell: "Growing Strong." maHoSchoHtaH
House Targaryen: "Fire and Blood." qul 'Iw je
