I was surprised when I saw your use of "hessanti", never having seen
this form of the verb "to be" before. However, I would suggest that
"bhavissanti" would be more appropriate. Thus:
bhavissanti / ~naataaro
~Naataaro bhavissanti.

See Warder p.54, under Future Tense, where he states: "(as and other
verbs meaning 'to be' rarely form their own futures, bhavissati is
used for all of them)"

With metta, John
