*picks up a green ring, and a yellow one as well, and disappears after Juliet* Do we have to post the answers to the questions in order? Or can we answer whatever we choose to? --- If we can answer whichever then...I have found the answer to the last question: The real name of Ccwiicc is "oNiirwiccrwuneggccwiicc" and it's pronounced like "quick." --- *joins Juliet on the floor* *doesn't know how to draw* *decides to just watch Juliet instead* |

Oh, and the only mention of a word for 'run' in Skrak is 'run (ran, will run)- pioth', which I believe is correct. Would it be called a 'future congregation'? |

I believe I found the answer to the question from Kitra's world: The Lor-amaran do not suffer under the curse of language barriers the way we (terrans) do. Language Barrier Syndrome (LBS) wrote: All Lor-Amarans can understand all other Lor-Amarans and people of our world, and all people of our world can understand all Lor-Amarans (unless they're being obnoxiously verbose or cryptic or certain root words don't line up). But not all people of our world can understand other people of our world in Lor-Amar. This is because it isn't the land that has the barrier but the people. It's sort of like a disease. In a way, we are infected so that we don't understand all languages. Every individual Lor-Amaran is immune but if a Lor-Amaran human and a human from our world have children, their children will not understand all the languages of our world because they would be under the same curse. This does make it a little easier to tell the two apart because any Lor-Amaran (no matter how little time they might spend in their world) will not be confused by other languages. What do you guys think? |

| Post subject: | Re: Scavenger Hunt - Team I |
Finally! After doggedly deciding I was going to read every single thread in the forum til I found it, I finally ran across it. Saemyr: The most popular fabric for court clothes, especially with the women, is the rare elemental cloth. Said to be made by the elementals, it was discovered after they fled following the Great War. Elemental cloth comes in four kinds, rather unimaginatively named wind, water, fire, and earth. Wind cloth seems to move like the wind, and is comprised of whites, light blues, and greys that wisp across the fabric. Water cloth also moves like water, with blues, greens, greys, and purples tumultuously swirling together. Fire cloth is comprised of reds, oranges, and yellow waving across it. Earth fabric is the calmest of the four, with the greens and browns staying stationary, with little patches of flower colours peeking out. Athulian weavers have tried to replicate the cloth, with no success, leading the rumour to become that somehow the elementals wove the elements right into the cloth. Since it is so rare, and once the cloth the elementals left behind is gone, it cannot be replaced, the cloth is made over many times into many different garments. |
