    Logged back in to check, the ones being sold for poetics now are the ones that were sold for earlier tomes back in the day.

    Where do people get the idea that we're carrying around thousands of tombstones?

    I think it's a easy mix-up personally. It's like we are killing people/monsters and they are dead. Maybe it would be like a trophy, but it still doesn't make sense as we aren't burying them. Also, wouldn't we *give* them a tombstone, instead of take one? lol

    But perhaps a mental slip is happening there. Also, I don't believe that people read it correctly because tomestone is I guess a book of some kind? But why is it a rock? Someone help me out here... :P I know people don't engrave these books on rocks... or do they? :P

    This is true.

    Tombstone is pronounced "tombstone", while tomestone is pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove".

    Clever analogy, but the word "tomestone" was invented for FFXIV (I don't know if it's in earlier FF episodes but it's definitely made up). I guess that's why so many people are confused as to the spelling.

    Yeah. FFXIV has taken a lot of things that exist and have names already and renamed them just because. A well known review of the game actually elaborates on that and the reviewer mentions how it annoys him.
