Ukhtaitasoistsea

An epic poem, composed in Trokh by Lyelritusye the Elder in approximately 2000 Aslan (-320 Imperial). It runs to nearly 3,600 lines, organized into four or five tala (books or scrolls). The name loosely translates as "Unknown Lands Seized by the Hero". It has been suggested that this might be a double meaning, as Ukhtai (hero) was also the name of the first Aslan starship.
