What if Harry's Assumptions are Wrong?

like Sungh or something similar.

The "S'" might have been a slur. Or he might have segmented the name into two exhalations because he couldn't speak "Juh. Stine"
Or he was trying to say another name.
Second Aristh:
Yeah, I think it's probably relevant that Thomas couldn't speak, but I don't think we can divine anything particular from his slurring attempts.

Re: "Junghg. S'Jnngh."
I translated this as: "Justine. It's Justine."

I think it is way too obvious...

Or... Just off the cuff...
"Jotun. It's Jotun." Or "Giant. It's Giant."
Maybe Thomas found out about Ethniu via overhearing a plot against Etri, and rushed to warn him, and didn't make it in time and ended up in a misunderstanding.
As to how, maybe he noticed the footprint in the sand, too, and didn't just ignore it like Harry did. Maybe he investigated after the Eb encounter, and then didn't have time to contact Harry before the attack was going to commence.
(As for Ethniu not actually being a Jotun, it seems like Butcher might be equating Titans, Fomor, and Jotun as giants)
