#she continues to vex me while i'm engaging with her worldbuilding 😒

trying to find the context for "haat, ijaa, haa'it" is giving me grief 😑 i'm having to google all of kt's books on the internet archive and word search for "haat" or "truth" bc i wasn't sure if she'd used it in mando'a or basic. i've found all but one of her books, and the one i couldn't find was from legacy of the force so i doubt it shows up bc it's not focused on the mandos iirc. it doesn't make an appearance anywhere, so i'm gonna have to track down a copy of her old mando culture article (articles? can't remember how many she wrote off the top of my head and wookieepedia didn't have any functioning links).

i'm sure it's said by the person swearing the pact, but idk if it's echoed by the person who the oath is declared too, à la "this is the way" (i am fully aware that "this is the way" is unique to din's offshoot, so i'm removing it from my fic and substituting "haat, ijaa, haa'it" or just an affirmative when appropriate).

anyway, this is basically just an excuse to complain abt kt. fuck that lady and the horse she rode in on
