Thanks! I'm really looking forward to when Daevinity is pealed.

Re: Aestrix Q & A
Is it still going to be called a peal? What's the collective noun for Adarins? While I'm thinking about it, is there a collective noun for Zevis or Idanias?

Re: Aestrix Q & A
It will still be "Bells" and "peal" when it's Incandescence.
Re: Aestrix Q & A
It's applicable and punny, so we will keep using it.
Adarins will be really bad at finding a collective noun for themselves, and will default to 'Adarins' until they can come up with something more interesting. Zevs will put forth calling the template pair A-Z's, but this will not work for Adarins - Cypress and other Adarins that are head over heels in love with Bells will want to have something that matches them and A-Z does not.
Idanias are unlikely to show up in large numbers, but will take the name 'alchemists' if a large enough number of them show up for them to want to have a template name besides 'Idania.'

Re: Aestrix Q & A
I always thought it was cute that Adarins and Bells are As and Bs while Adarins and Zevis are As and Zs.

Re: Aestrix Q & A
Funnily enough, the first three Bells in this peal don't even go by a nickname that starts with B, but yes, that is cute :)
Re: Aestrix Q & A
Adarins and Bells, my one true ship. It caught me off guard but then when it got going I was so supportive.
Re: Aestrix Q & A
Ice speaks English but the others speak something else, it would be funny if the last letter of their alphabets wasn't even Z, but Ö or Ш or Ω or Ž or Ᏼ or ჰ (pronounced like h), and then when the english speaking Z proposes it the rest look confused
Re: Aestrix Q & A
Heh, yeah. I'm not enough of a linguist to pull that off, though - it certainly won't make sense for Edarial and Zevros, or Darren and Savannah. Just Adarin and Zeviana or Adana and Zane xD
