[idle thoughts] regarding our miqote scion friends' names

I wonder if by this point we're close enough to call them Raha and Shtola respectively, or will get the opportunity to do so later?

I would really like to have the option in dialogue prompts, especially for Raha, as we clearly have a close friendship with him so it seems natural to call him that.

Y'shtola seems less likely though, given that even her long-time colleagues don't call her Shtola.

In the french and japanese version, we call him Raha since 5.3. Alisaie does too after 5.4. Krile seemingly always called Raha.

As for Y'shtola, only Matoya call her Shtola, i don't even remember her sister calling her that.

God I hope not, and I hope G'raha gets killed off, to be honest.

I knew Alisaie calls him Raha, but it's nice (but also disappointing translation-wise) to know that we do too. I don't know why they wouldn't carry it over when it's a specific lore thing about signifying relationship states.

Y'mhitra does say Shtola, from memory. Or maybe it was Y'shtola calling her Mhitra? Either way I'm pretty sure the sisters are on close-name basis.

I think Y'mhitra called her Shtola last time I talked to her, which was in the GNB Job quest.

That's never gonna happen, no way they would get rid of any of these cats.
They stopped killing main characters in the Heavensward's patches. If someone survive the expansion they were introduced in, i doubt they're ever gonna die.

I really don't understand why they haven't translated it that way in the english localization. After everything he did for the WoL, it feels natural to call him Raha.

No, probably not! But we can dream!

Pretty sure Y'mhitra calls her Shtola when you rescue her from the aetherial sea as well.
