Re: Ask The Staff 'Anything'
@ Gikoku: What do you think of the following quote:
"Shgla'yos plahf mh'naus.
They who dine on lost souls know only hunger.
Gul'kafh an'shel. Yoq'al shn ky ywaq nuul.
Gaze into the void. It is the perpetuity in which they dwell.
Iilth vwah, uhn'agth fhssh za.
Where one falls, many shall take it's place."
@ Drakan: Is it legal to take people's souls at will yet?
RANDOM INFO TIME!!
'Vette' is short for 'corvette', a word which derives from the Middle Dutch 'corf' meaning both 'small ship' and 'basket', strangely enough. The '-ette' ending is a diminutive.
Basically a corvette is a kind of small ship which is built for speed rather than combat capability: it has a few light weapons and is mainly employed in an escort position. It has come to mean a craft of any kind which is slimmed-down to make it move faster, hence the car's name Corvette.
