neisfa — disturbing; not fit to be looked upon; of a sight one is warned away from.

Notes

A word of genuine caution rather than distaste. Used of a wound, a scene on the road, an anatomical plate, the aftermath of a Draech. Physicians and Academy lecturers use it as a formal warning before showing something, and the courtesy of saying it first is expected. What the word originally distinguished is not recorded.
