وَمَعِي and with me

The 'wa-' (and) opens a side-clause alongside the main story, fused onto the locative word 'with' that itself carries the pronoun '-i' (me), so one chunk means 'and with me [there was]'. The 'with me' phrase sets up possession, 'I had', the way Arabic says someone has something. The '-i' marks the first-person owner.
