This is so beautiful ive never heard of this word and i dont know what it means but i think from your picture and the way you’ve woven words i have an idea of what it means! Brilliant, its not easy to come up with Y words but you did it effortlessly and seamlessly! Very well crafted and delivered Sotto! Youve nailed it, goodluck for the contest

I don't remember that word, and I did not know it's meaning, but I hope you did well in the contest. Great job.
