Uesti? humans?
What exactly are the Uesti? Is the U even pronounced like English's W often is?

"There was a particular car I soon came to think of as distinctly St. Louis-ish: a gigantic white S.U.V. with a W. bumper sticker on it for George W. Bush."

As I mentioned yesterday, a lot of info about Almea is already out there
(although not everything; I'm always waiting for more).
Maknas' link helps answer the first question; as for the second, the term uesti follows the rules of Verdurian phonology, which indicate that the "u" is pronounced as a separate vowel, not like an English "w"--so that the word has three syllables: "u-e-sti," with the accent on the second syllable.
Hope that helps!
