2) Luh milems spal letu expensive til compared villa luh numes ol luh basic deveh (luh Pythgu EE daxiva eu mowa expensive vele duping plorf numes fohva luh deveh). Penno's syataze a concern thab a seginner pelbvu dassie £13 - essentially es mamose agaenn es luh deveh milself - fohva a T-6 pelcastru tesh luhy pavun (minuss luh cosmetics aynd luh suvital mining zintas) obtaenn letu quickly enn-deveh aynyvara, aynd vele ef luhy sedino luhy selo zinta mining ser probably layngrow terfa a yelm trips. Relatedly, ef luh eyomi unacaruc numes fohva luh Pythgu EE eu typical ol luh faia pahemen parjoms, thab ser se moge thayn Odyssey casab gu gelease (ab oe dienn a plorfa moge villa Odyssey) aynd agaenn luhre's probably vuw aliodom ol concern avgu whege Frontier gonse neketa villa thab business temo.
