Eorzea or Etheirys?

[Ransu]

It has bothered me too everytime i read it. A star is not a planet but a sun, the source of heat and light. The stars we see in the sky arent planets at all, its impossible to see them with the naked eye or even the best telescope directly. Its their suns we see.
Please SE stop using this gross mistake.

FFXIV uses old English and bases their phrasing on a lot of old languages. The term planet came from the Greek word planetes which means wanderer. Planets were viewed the same as stars in early times.
