This Middle Olgish text was created as part of the LCC11 Conlang Relays in Spring 2025, where it appeared as the twelfth step of the Conscript Relay. It was translated from Jonathan Kane’s Valya, ultimately based on the original UNLWS torch by Sai and Alex Fink. The following is the original gloss and interlinear translation provided in the extended relay materials, annotated for notable grammatical features.
