[quote=@Lugubrious] No problem! A change is probably for the better to eliminate confusion. 'Withered Villages' is a fitting substitute from an outside perspective, but would the occupants of those villages refer to themselves as such? Perhaps something like 'Thornmold Villages' would be a little more subtle, conveying a sense of strength and independence to the villagers but also a threatening feel to onlookers. Your call. [/quote] XD The withered thing was just a joke. "Rose Villages" sounds gentle and beautiful, but every rose has thorns. That would convey a similar meaning to Thornmold, but even more subtly.
