I agree checking out and I like it, though it does bring up one thing in
writeups that I've seen followed to different degrees in various places,
the use of the singular pronouns for Kyriotates, particularly when the
Kyriotate self-refers.

For example, in the AA interaction descriptions, Sauriel says

"I have watched her slow fall to madness, and I ask myself: has her time
come at last? I fear that the answer might be yes."

To me, a Kyriotate self-refering with "I" is a Kyriotate extremely close
to jumping/falling. 

(Note, I know I have been affected in this argument by David Brin's
Uplift series, specifically by the traeki/Jophur
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jophur) scenes).
