Torug ag Krazak - A book in Orcish

Post » Mon Aug 03, 2015 7:38 pm

The following four books are found in the upcoming Orsinium update and feature... Orcish?

The titular Torug is Torug gro-Igron, the founder of the first Orsinium. He rode a special polar bear and built a big shrine on top of the highest mountain the in Wrothgars.

Translations by Kharsthun, an NPC in ESO.

Torug ag Krazak, Uhz

(Turog at the summit, One)

Goltragga Torug ne murimush lochan sim

(Chief Torug will not allow the looters to find his remains.)

Goltragga Torug ne rohi Ornim lochan norgim krazak

(Chief Torug will allow no lesser Orcs to find interment above him.)

Torug ag Krazak, Uhg

(Torug at the Summit, Two)

Goltragga Torug dek vorkhim lorak eb norgimin sim

(Chief Torug gathered up his armored bracer and his dying body.)

Torug dulg krazak eb Jur ugo sim ren tum beshkar

(He climbed to the summit and placed himself in a cairn of his own making.)

Torug ag Krazak, Aht

Urgalick voshu Ornim tarask Torug golzarga ubeshka

(Forever waiting for a worthy Orc to claim his most cherished possession.)

Torug ag Krazak, Uz (This section is identical to the first - I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that or if it will be fixed/removed when the book is properly released)

Interesting stuff. But could you brighten the text I had to highlight it to see it. Either way I never knew Orcs can read and write, except for a select few.

Should be fixed. I copy/pasted and didn't notice that the color formatting came with it since I use the Elegant skin.

Why this assumption, if I may ask? Outside of stereotype, I can't think of anything to suggest that.
