Pray not for Peace, for such is the wish of the weak and cowardly.
(Word Wall for Drem, Kyne’s Peace)
Usage is comparable to nikriin ‘cowardly’, but etymology suggests the abandonment of loyalty. May have originally meant this but grew to encompass a broader meaning.
Likely a compound of ni ‘not’ and vahriin ‘sworn’.
