Nah, I think a relatively recent incident would be better. The Sauru'u would probably serve better, since I was thinking of it being about 200 or so years ago, which fits with the emergence of the Sauru'u. Though perhaps even 15 is too recent; we could go 50 or so years ago.

And also, quick question. {Would anyone object to actual dialogue from Rimworlders being in braces like this instead of parentheses? Just as kind of differentiate them on account of their language being pretty much unrepeatable by most species (and vice versa). I may have forgotten to mention it, but their voices kind of sound like the piping of a woodwind instrument.}

It's sort of meaningless to do that tbh. It's like saying you won't ever explore inner monologue because such-and-such creature has a different thinking pattern than any other race.

Ultimately what one is responsible for when writing is to convey the emotions and actions of a character or race in a relatable manner. And if they're any different than the norm (English) then it's expected it gets translated to English, which if you're going to do than anything but the standard will be unnecessary.

Besides, brackets and parenthesis have their own grammatical uses that might seem lost when used out of place.
