Ishgard, Camp Dragonhead -- Text -- Liflin Gulin's Awkward Repetition

[Mermentia]

When the player is in Camp Dragonhead in Ishgard and speaks to the Liflin Gulin, the following text appears:

"
Liflin Gulin: Keep an eye to the
sky, friend. Might be ye'll spy
some o' them Ixal war balloons.
But take care...they might jus'
spy ye back.
"
[text advance]
"
Liflin Gulin: It's them damn Ixal
war balloons. Birds in Natalan to
the east o' here been settin' 'em
off o' late.
"

This is incorrect for two reasons:
1. The adjectival form of "Ixal" is "Ixali", not "Ixal".
2. The repetition of the phrase "Ixal war balloons" in such close proximity reads awkwardly to the player.

Please fix these issues by replacing the first instance of "Ixal" with "Ixali" and by removing the phrase "It's them damn Ixal war balloons" from the beginning of the second text string.

The corrected text would read as follows:

"
Liflin Gulin: Keep an eye to the
sky, friend. Might be ye'll spy
some o' them Ixali war balloons.
But take care...they might jus'
spy ye back.
"
[text advance]
"
Liflin Gulin: Birds in Natalan to
the east o' here been settin' 'em
off o' late.
"

I acknowledge that both of these could be characterization. "Ixal" in place of "Ixali" is pure judgment call in a character speaking like this. And the repetition could just be Liflin being Wawalago-ish in his senility.

Still. Reads funny without a voice attached.

While we're on the subject of Ishgard, I think we should change the text of Ishgard's gate guard, Ortefauchel, from, "The Fury judges the souls of all those who stand before these gates. None may pass until Her voice is heard." to, "Why, if it isn't Anony Moose! Come on in! Can I offer you a birch beer?"

That said, repetition of clauses can get awkward when the repetition of clauses stands out more than the words around the repetition of clauses, so yeah. I get you. Then again, he IS a lalafell.......

Fixed the repetition issue. The change will go live in a future patch.

Yeah, gonna leave Ixal as is. Thanks, Merm!
