Should we set a guideline on if we're using "planet achaea" or "realms of Achaea" or "the lands of Achaea" or something?

I really don't like planet Lereas 22:43, 2 Jul 2005 (GMT)


"The central known continent of the realm of Achaea, Sapience, stretches from the north pole to just south of the equator." From the Sapience Wiki article. Best to use realms probably for now just for consistency. Corvax 23:01, 2 Jul 2005 (GMT)


I don't like Planet either but when it comes down to it... it's a planet. Azzie 08:54, 4 Jul 2005 (GMT)


Yeah... You're going for consistency using the Sapience article's reference to "realm" paradigmatically, but actually, I originally wrote the word "planet" in, and Lereas went and changed it later on. "Realm" is a very broad term and can indeed apply in context, but I have found that in Achaea it usually stands for one of two definitions: 1) a plane of existence - i.e. a universe, or 2) the area of philosophy over which a god holds sway.

Lands of Achaea then? We have a sun and space, but there's always that big argument about if the world is flat there, and a flat plane doesn't really constitute a planet in my book. I just have never seen "planet achaea" in anything at all ingame, and it just sounds silly in my head. Something from more of a sci-fi mud maybe, and less fantasyLereas 14:45, 5 Jul 2005 (GMT)
