Hi
theleekycauldron, thanks for the review. I've fixed the quote that was throwing the copyright flag. FWIW, I find the current hook quite interesting; I myself didn't know that before I researched for the article. That said, how about:
Sources: (Pan Hla 2005: 172–173) details Ye-Thin-Yan's deception and betrayal that led to the death of his thwethauk (blood brother). (Fernquest 2006: 7) covers the battle of Wun [Donwun], and Sam Lek's death-- only from a high level, without including any details like how the town's defenses were breached, who led the breach, etc.
If you have more riveting hooks, feel free to suggest. Thanks.
