Question! I'm sure rosesilk is rare, but is maedatha wool free for alteration purposes?

#

Tonight or tomorrow I’ll go update ooc notes for this. In the mean time I’ll ask because I can’t recall!

#

Rose silk is not yet available though since its process was lost and attempts to recreate are in process…so yeah fodder mandatory

"yet"

No fodder required for maedetha

Founded in the Second Age, the city of Ta'Nalfein is a terraced masterpiece on the southeastern coast of Elanith. While perhaps most well-known by some for infamous items -- poisons, assassinations, political intrigue, and the like -- the Nalfein are, of course, so much more, and this is reflected throughout the city-state and especially in the city itself.

I just wanted to point out what an amazing, and possibly underrated, opening this is for the document. Not only does it validate and give the trope room to breathe (which I feel is super important), but it opens the door to so much more beyond that.

Nicely done! The little Nalfein that lurks in my heart is quite pleased.

So glad you guys are all enjoying it! We wanted to ensure we weren't just living in rigid stereotypes while also acknowledging that perhaps they exist for a reason

Scope creep request - Can all the awesome new words and things that are being captured on the various (Culture) Lexicon wikipages added to the DEFINE verb? Would it be helpful if I offered to go through and submit them all via DEFINE SUGGEST some lazy Sunday morning?

If you do, just remember that it should be like, one or two words. Not paragraphs. "A flower."

It would certainly be helpful if you submitted via DEFINE SUGGEST. It's already quite a bit to come up with a doc, release it, add it to the wiki, add the lexicon stuff, etc....if I had to add define into that, I would probably do a lot less.
