    LL, Astalicia, "Call of Booty" -- Text -- Hasthwab's Incorrect Cappings -- "Sultan"

    When the player is aboard the Astalicia in Limsa Lominsa and speaks to Hasthwab concerning the "Call of Booty" sidequest, the following text appears in part (all within on line text):

    "
    raid the Sultan of Ul'dah's royal
    "

    "
    current Sultana bears a strikin'
    "

    These instances of "Sultan" and "Sultana" are incorrect because they are not being capitalized consistently. Throughout the rest of the game, these titles are lower-case when not used directly in front of the leader's name.

    Please fix these issues by replacing "Sultan" with "sultan" and "Sultana" with "sultana".

    The corrected pieces of this text string would appear as follows:

    "
    raid the sultan of Ul'dah's royal
    "

    "
    current sultana bears a strikin'
    "

    For what this is worth, I have always, always believed that "Sultana" should appear capitalized in this manner. However, since it is capitalized throughout the rest of the game as lower-case, then it should be consistent. I would fully support a global change of this to be capitalized, however.

    It really doesn't make any sense to have "sultana" lower-case when "Admiral" and "Seedseer" is both capitalized. It makes it look as though the sultana is less important than the other leaders.

    I also note that all of Eorzea's known rulers, de-facto or otherwise, are female.
    Merlwyb, the Sultana and Kann-E.

    Not that that is a problem...

    The issues have been fixed in the file and should make their way into the game post-1.19a.

    There is a method behind our capitalization madness (Admiral vs sultana, etc.) and one day I will post here all about it. Until then, keep the bugs coming
