    Gridania, Lotus Gardens -- Text -- Eldid's Incorrect Word and Misplaced Apostrophe

    When the player is outside the Lotus Gardens area in Gridania and speaks to Eldid about the Adders' Nest, the following text appears:

    "
    Eldid: So you've heard already,
    have you? Aye, it's true, the
    Order of the Twin Serpent has
    established a base of command in
    the Lotus Gardens. The Adder's
    Nest, it's called. If you with to
    serve Gridania, I urge you to pay
    a visit.
    "

    This is incorrect for two reasons:
    1. The name of the Grand Company in Gridania is the "Order of the Twin Adder", not "Order of the Twin Serpent".
    2. The name of this company's base is the "Adders' Nest", not the "Adder's Nest".

    Please fix this issues by replacing "Serpent" with "Adder" and "Adder's" with "Adders'".

    The corrected text would read as follows:

    "
    Eldid: So you've heard already,
    have you? Aye, it's true, the
    Order of the Twin Adder has
    established a base of command in
    the Lotus Gardens. The Adders'
    Nest, it's called. If you with to
    serve Gridania, I urge you to pay
    a visit.

    I reckon Eldid could be giving some flavor or something with "Serpent", but considering this may be introducing the name of the company for the first time to the player, I'm not sure.

    I just wanted to throw it out there that while your threads don't often provoke community discussion and/or horseplay, you sure as hell have a ton of good catches that, in time, will prevent a lot of momentary mood-breaking. Good work ^^

    This one is just plain embarrassing, and that's all I have to say about that.

    Well, that and that it has been fixed for 1.19. Cheers, Merm!
