    Ishgard, Dzemael Darkhold -- Text -- Leleyo's Incorrect Word -- "less"

    When the player is outside Dzemael Darkhold in Ishgard and speaks to Leleyo, the following text appears:

    "
    Leleyo: Many an adventurer has
    entered the Darkhold in search
    of fame and riches. Far less have
    come back...
    "

    This is incorrect because "less" on the third line should be replaced with "fewer". "fewer" better describes the countable number of adventurers that have entered the Darkhold and vanished.

    Please consider fixing this issue by replacing "less" with "fewer".

    The corrected text would read as follows:

    "
    Leleyo: Many an adventurer has
    entered the Darkhold in search
    of fame and riches. Far fewer
    have come back...
    "

    I freely acknowledge this could be written off as characterization. But wrong's wrong, yo.

    Even if it's supposed to be characterization, this particular character has far too few lines (at the moment) to establish that type of speech as "typical" for her, thus making the "less" appear as a bug.

    The text has been amended and willbe making its way in the game, hopefully sometime soon.
