    This has to be a joke right. What's your problem with the Greek language? Wait until you learn where a lot of English words come from.

    Until sage was added Greek was reserved specifically for the ancients - hades, hythlodaeus, amaurot, titanomachy for example. Or in the current expansion kokytos, exoterikos, ania, styx, adikia, phlegeton (i.e the attacks used before amon fully takes over). Sage being entirely unrelated and also using the greek naming scheme undermines this, as would a job unrelated to the garleans using Latin. That sage doesn't even lean into the four humours beyond the surface level just adds to this blemish on the otherwise pretty consistent worldbuilding.
