Bad of her that she found the question - the tone, the emphasis, everything - funny. "I don't think so, Mr. Dakest," Di smiled. "Merkstave means a rune that lands or comes out - note that this is not something that one does intentionally - right side up but upside-down. Not to mention, the 'reversal' to the meaning of the rune is not literal - let me say it means that the meaning now has a negative connotation."

Mmhhm.
