[RathDarkblade]

Trevor Likely => Yennork

 

[=Tamar]

Yennork => Ku

 

[RathDarkblade]

Ku? Isn't that Qu?

Ku => Undead

 

[=Tamar]

Nope. it's Ku, the most embarrassing continental catastrophe ever. It took years to sink, and people spent a lot of time wading.

Undead => Dezka-k'nik

 

[RathDarkblade]

Dezka-k'nik => K'ez'rek d'b'duz!

(By the way, I was astonished to see the word "Ginnungagap" in the Dwarfish language. Isn't it a concept from Norse mythology? It means "emptiness" or "yawning abyss", and refers to the vast, primordial void that existed prior to the creation of the manifest universe. It corresponds (both in etymology and in meaning) to the Greek notion of Chaos. So what's it doing in Dwarfdom?)

 

[=Tamar]

Ginnungagap just sounds like a dwarf word. Why wouldn't they know about it?

K'ez'rek d'b'duz! => Zlorf Flannelfoot

Pratchett didn't write that title.

 

[RathDarkblade]

Oops. *blush* Well, how about ...

Sweeper => Rincewind

 

[=Tamar]

Rincewind => Deep-Downers

 

[RathDarkblade]

Deep-Downers => Stoneface, Old

 

[=Tamar]

Stoneface, Old => Doinov, Wotcha

 

[RathDarkblade]

I think that's Wotua Doinov. But never mind.

Doinov, Wotcha => Altogether Andrews

 

[=Tamar]

Altogether Andrews => Scorpion, Path of the

 

[RathDarkblade]

Scorpion, Path of the => Edward d'Eath again

 

[=Tamar]
