Thaum ntawd kuv thiaj mus xyuas Delayas tus tub Semayas uas yog Mehetanpees tus xeebntxwv uas nws yeej tsis muaj cuabkav yuav tawm tau hauv nws lub tsev hlo li. Nws hais rau kuv tias, “Koj thiab kuv yuav tsum tau khiav mus nkaum rau hauv chav dawbhuv hauv lub Tuamtsev thiab muab tej qhovrooj liaj huv tibsi, rau qhov lawv npaj siab yuav tuaj muab koj tua. Txij no mus txhua hmo lawv yuav tuaj nyas nrhiav koj tua povtseg.”
