Eagles Over the Kennebec

EDITED TO ADD: Thread frozen; I have my answers.  Thanks to everyone for being willing to help!

There has been a call for a(n updated) Liaden Dictionary.  I have located in my files a longish list of words that ought to get us started, but I don't have context for some of the words, and have come up empty guessing which book they must appear in (or they're there, but the search engine in my word processor passes them by -- this has happened before; the in-Libre search does not like apostrophes interrupting its words).

So!

Who can get me references -- that would be book and search phrase -- for the following:

a'trezla
balent'i kalandon
balent'i tru'vad
lazenia spandok
lisamia keshoc
palesci modassa
prethliu
tra'sia volectava'netra
Valcon Berant'a
Valcon Melad'a

Warning: May contain spoilers for Carousel Tides.

I’d been meaning to get into That File Cabinet Down There for a while now, to look for something I’ll tell you about later. I found what I was looking for, and also a Vixen the Slayer t-shirt, which I wasn’t necessarily looking for, but not not looking for, either.

Well. That’s pretty close, innit?

And now, to the sofa!
