*qatlh ngemDaq ghaHtaH molor Duy'e' marqagh puqloD’e’ Hop juHlIj nov* What is an envoy of Molor, Son of Markag, doing in these woods? You are far away from home, stranger. (paq'yav 3, 1-3) Maybe I'm understanding this wrong, but wouldn't that mean that the envoy is the son of Markag? Since *'e'* gives us the reference for *ghaHtaH*, *ghaHtaH* = *molor Duy'* and *ghaHtaH* = *marqagh puqloD*: He is an envoy of Molor and he is the son of Markag. Shouldn't it have been something like *molor marqagh puqloD Duy'e'*? Or maybe *molor Duy'e' marqagh puqloD Duy'e'*? By the way: A bit later we see *molor QaS HoS* for *The men of mighty Molor*. Why isn't it *molor HoS QaS*? Thank you for your help!
