I had thought of using {ke'a} .iku'ibabo I realized that {ke'a} works specifically in reletive clauses to refer to the sumti being modified - and thus it would not work in this case. So I looked up {ce'u} in the Reference Guide and sure enough, that would do it! Thanks again!

I'd use "ce'u", since it's in a nu-clause.
