Where the dragons came from, why they moved here, and whereto they are heading, are questions we don't know the answers to yet.

Wateu

Okarulagga, ta pwai meraka xoru, ta makinu pete gii, le pwai laka xoru, xe ne kkini ku koma a xoru xeita o ima kilu.
dragon, DEF place come.from 3p, DEF cause move here, and place go.to 3s, PRS FOC question NEG know answer GEN DEM yet

If one wants to use interrogatives, one has to reformulate it like this:

Okarulagga: Xe mwata meraka xoru? Xe marui pete gii xoru? Poe mwamo laka xoru? Xe ima ne kkini ku koma xeita xoru kilu.
dragon: PRS from.where come.from 3s? PRS why move here 3s? and whereto go.to 3s? PRS DEM FOC question NEG know GEN 3s yet

Edit: Your first suggestion does feel more neutral, Bororo. -_^

This sounds awkward, doesn't it?

I'd say :
sont des questions dont nous ne connaissons pas encore les réponses
or
sont des questions auxquelles nous ne savons pas encore répondre

Hvaðan drekarnir komu, hví þeir fluttu hingað, og hvert fara munu, eru spursmál er getum ekki svarað enn.
Whence the dragons came, why they moved hither, and whither they will go, are questions that we can not answer yet.

Honnan a sárkányok jöttek, miért ide költöztek, és hová mennek, a kérdések, amiket még nem megválaszolhatunk.
Whence the dragons came, why they moved hither, and whither they are going, are the questions which we may not yet answer.

The Hungarian may be very wrong.

That's a weird motive for murder.

Really? I often feel the urge to kill people for pronouncing words wrong. Give me a hammer and a Scanian and I'll work him like an anvil!
