Well, at least you didn't name the city of Hope Myth Pleezcumbak.
-Sounds more like a Dwarven realm than an Elven one. Harsher syllables, with the 'z', and the 'k'. |

-I'll say the stereotypical thing to say, that usually Old Sage says:
"Out of here"? The city was magically shunted away? Ha ha ha...
Truth be told, as much as I love a good pun, I wasn't intentionally doing such here. I didn't even think of that pronunciation until George Krashos pointed it out to me after it saw print. |

Just don't start any Osse discussions Dagnirion. You know where those usually lead.

Posted - 04 Jul 2008 : 14:30:16 Steven Schend elaborated on this a little in some of his previous replies here at Candlekeep:-
"Honestly, using my old notes on elvish, "ado" is peace/peaceful and "faer" is magic; thus Myth Adofaer (no h in there I was aware of, unless my notes are wrong) is "the place of peaceful magics."
Alternately, there could have been some elven disinformation campaigns going on all across the centuries...
What if the city's name was actually Myth Adofhaor? "Fhaor" is the concept of magical death/change/alteration (but not of an evil nature), so the city could have been some crucible of change seen as a good thing by the Siluvanedden.
Innit great how one or two letters can totally change one's perceptions of an idea? Just another direction y'all can take this in your campaigns, if you so choose...."
