Hi.
At long last, I give you another page.
Late, I know. It's also been migraine week, and the last week of winter sale, and the week before the bigwig comes to town. Hence, very little time/brain-power to devote to more interesting pursuits.
Life is fun that way.

Anyway - a few notes on the page.
Mzil translates as "million" or "many". It is also a name given to one of the factions within the Empire.
Uss Karilth is another political faction within the Empire of Night, and its name means "One Purity".
I leave the nature of those two factions to your venerable imagination for now, dear reader.

VlosRah as you may recall, translates as "blood-hand," but seems to be a title or possibly occupation with further connotations.

Cres'tsyde means "web-fine", and refers to that weight of cloth which is so finely woven of thin and smooth threads that the result is translucent and as light as to put one in mind of a spiderweb. There are but two fibers which are capable of producing this: silk, and flax. Each requires a substantial investment of resources and labor to process.

See you next page when we meet the subject of the overseer's discourse… he sounds intriguing, does he not?

edit: I uh.. forgot to turn the opacity back up. It is now corrected. /sheepish
