10 minutes, this is going to be one brief meeting, and the doctor will have some issues.

Caius should be arriving on deck soon, it'd be a shame if Stella was not at the helm when the Odysseus launched (let alone finding out the pilot wasn't even human).

Note that for the most part, my character knows Unionese (English), but he is still learning some of the harder words and phrases, so his speech may be a bit broken at times. The language the Lumar speak is his first language, and he is fluent in that language.

Possibly, we don't have to get into specifics, we are just using real languages to represent them in game.

Umbrex = Slovak

Unionese = English

Lumar = ???

It's just to help us get through, if we made up a language it'd be harder to have people join us.

Can I has Ruskie for Kovlen 5's language?

Maybe Japanese or Spanish?

I thought of Ruskie because Kovlen 5 Natives are ManBeardog people.

Someone needs Russian. It sounds so much more foreign, has different letters, and stuff.

German has too many cognates.

Wasser water

Spanish was something I was thinking. I wanted it to sound beautiful, and special to reflect the nature of the Empire as a force of tradition, light, and good will; though I understand that may have changed a bit.

I mean, it's an Empire due to having dominion over multiple species; rather then a kingdom which would have control over a single species.

Though, now that you mention it; Russian works great :)

Think about it, the Russian Empire, it's perfect.

that, or Bosnian.

Bosnian: Sveti moć carstva.

Spanish: El poder sagrado del imperio.

Russian: Svyatoy sila imperii.


Bosnian :)

Well, if you're ok with Bosnian. I don't want you to do if not, as Russian, Russian is great.
