DF2014 Talk:World History file

Slight error regarding the non-english words at the top of the file[edit]

Where it says: "World Name At the top of the file is the World name, and English translation. Mareecamo Ewè The Soul-Universe of Enchanting"

The English Translation is the world name, but the bit above is actually something else (the settlement name perhaps)? On my save, for example, the English world name is 'Realm of Legends' - the name of the world - but the bit in Dwarven reads 'Tong Shame'. I'm not exactly sure what Tong Shame refers to. My region? My settlement? EDIT! It refers to your fortress! I found it in the history logs for my world."

Tong isn't even a dwarven word in df, it is a goblin word.

The top is probably just what the dwarves CALL the world. If it was a "fortress name" before you even have a fortress that would be ridiculous. 97.83.172.183 03:27, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
