Quote:Originally posted by Quentin Fortune I actually thought Valderon lived in the building, sort-of the hardworking master administrator who can't tear himself from the office at the end of the day. But I'm glad he'll walk home from work in OST.

If he walks home, I hope we can arrange an Guardian escort.

Hello. The summary above is quite nice... however, I do have a little problem with it. It mentions the inclusion of a new building called "The Emissary of the Dunmer". I can see what you are getting at; however, the word used here (emissary) is not used in the correct manner. An emissary is a person, someone who would be a courier to another nation (note the similarity to the word "missive"). Since the word is being used for a building, it is not entirely appropriate. Instead, a very correct word to use would be "Embassy", which is actually a building in another country for visiting politicians to stay at. Embassy would be exactly what you had in mind.
Sorry to be a bother. |

Not a bother at all! Welcome to the Silgrad Tower forums! Nice to have you here. Thanks for noticing this mistake aswell. Embassy is a much more proper word for this, but it doesn't really sound right, lorewise. It could just be me though.
Here are some words that we could use: Delegation Commission Embassy Foreign Office I think "The Commission of the Dunmer" or "The Dunmer Delegation" would be the best choice. |

No bother I called it the "Emissary of the Dunmer" building; not in the definitive variety you referred to, "The Emissary of the Dunmer". I tried to imply that the people inside it were emissaries. As Morrowind and Cyrodiil are more like states than nations, I didn't feel Embassy was an appropriate word.
