I figure it might be interesting to have a missing man for a little, whether or not he is purposefully avoiding things. If no one knows where Įforględ is, Coen will try not to put a hold on everything to find him.
Good, looks fine to me. I will try to think of a post and write something now in the following few hours.

One of them would have been me - and in that case, the intention was to sort of make it go with Įforględ's character, him being suddenly startled by Coen's approach and being probably close to this "earth-bred soldier"-type. I wanted to use some word which would sound plausible (the other variant was something like "damned", but this one sounded better to me and far more appropriate). I think the likes of Įforględ or the other infamous Scyrr could be somewhat close to this type and thus also their speech, when they are only among themselves (and not for example speaking to their leader), could reflect that (of course not always by any means, but in emotional moments like this).
