The establishment of how the Klingons get the warp ability

[Timo]

The Klingon Krios was a single world whose ownership could flip back and forth. The Krios from which Trills like to get their warm bodies was a vast interstellar empire, split in two and caught in a static struggle that clearly wasn't interrupted by anything like a Klingon occupation a year before the events of "Perfect Mate".

As for how specific "Hur'q" is, Dax identifies "Hur'q DNA" on the shroud that Kor presents as evidence. Supposedly, then, one specific species.

It may mean "invader" in a loose sense--so this particular invader may be called the Her'Q if no other name is found.

I was thinking Slavers or the Vegan tyranny might also be good candidates. The Husnok?

Didn't TAS say the time of the Slavers was circa 1 billion years ago? They would have to be entirely unrelated.

I like to think that the "skeleton creature" from Worf's calisthenics program was the Klingon representation of the Hur'q, but that's based on precisely nothing (other than my fevered imagination).
