Notes

  1. ↑ Here translated as "you swore that..." but literally meaning "by (your) promise", the agent of the promise being implied from context.
  2. ↑ The use of kesosy instead of the expected kesos here is an unintentional error by Peterson, however it apparently fits the speaker, Hizdahr zo Loraq, a Meereenese noble.
