Creation and Usage Notes

Often I'm asked how I come up with words. If it's a bare root and isn't derived, it goes about like this: With this word, I decided I wanted a root that had to do with heat in Dothraki. "What would be good?" I thought. "Afazh!" That was it. There was nothing more or less to it. It took about as much time to create as it took to read.
