There's a popular Star Trek author named John M. Ford who wrote some
influential (but non-canon) books on Klingons, and who developed a
mythology around "the naked stars", which some on this mailing list
have taken to translating as {Hovmey Huv}.
My words above are a translation of a passage from his novel, "The
Final Reflection":
"If there are gods, they do not help, and justice belongs to the
strong: but know that all things done before the naked stars are
remembered."
And this is why some people suggest that the words {Hov} and {Huv} are
connected.
