I only see a few small changes to be made:

Remove the spaces between words and punctuation (i.e. "know ?" becomes "know?")

Swap two words in this sentence:
– They all were! Irmao’s dream became real.

"Have’nt" should be "Haven't"

Change "Yop" to "Yup"

Looks pretty good until the end.

– Hey, kid. Don’t make fun of your ancestors, you know?
– Again the archipelago story?
– that’s what it took for the banished to reach a safe haven.
– The old archipelago?
– Fortunately, the natives were friendly.
– And their wives too?
– They all were! Irmao’s dream became real.
– Utopia!
– Until the terrible Storm.  ("Until" sounds like it was good, but then something bad happens)
– This storm was our chance.  (Chance for what?)
– Do you believe in the vision?
– Haven't we found the Great Island? Haven't we launched the Back’s shipping? (Doesn't make sense)
– Yup… but what about the pujlanar? (What is this word?)

Thanks
Few answers, but for your eyes only...

– Until the terrible Storm. ("Until" sounds like it was good, but then something bad happens)
– This storm was our chance. (Chance for what?)
They lived quite well on the archipelago, but were oust by a terrible storm.
After all, they find a very big island where their nation grows up.

– Haven't we found the Great Island? Haven't we launched the Back’s shipping? (Doesn't make sense)
3 cycles before present, they build a big fleet to navigate to Mornea. They called this journey "l'expédition du Retour" (the come back expedition ?)

– Yup… but what about the pujlanar? (What is this word?)
The pujlanar are the "zombies-looking like" Utopian, but hush Wink

My take,

Leviathan Hunter

Once a cycle on the Great Island, usually at the beginning of winter, an Utopian gives birth to an Ocean child, (as they are usually called) these children are disproportionate in size. No one knows in advance to which family the child will be born, but by the end of autumn the midwives begin looking for it all over the island. It is indeed important to quickly locate the mother who carries this baby to prevent it from dying in childbirth. The size of the child is such that the mother must deliver it two months before the due date. The baby then grows under the constant care of a midwife.
Following its first cycle, when the child far exceeds the size of one meter, it is returned to its family. At the age of three cycles it is larger than most adults and is welcomed by the Legendary Hunters who will make it a formidable Leviathan Hunter.
No one knows the origin of these fabulous children, yet a legend tells the story of Tansa Hacha, the harpooner. She returned pregnant after several months of solitude on the banks of Empty and was the mother of the first Ocean child, more than 300 cycles ago...

Question, is Empty the name of a known place?

Choker of Dal~Eth

In their first stages of evolution, Pes~Hat issued from the sublimation of their predecessor, the Naashtis have to accumulate experience through observation and reflection. Taking advantage of their large size, they accomplish difficult tasks and military jobs.
It behooves the Chokers to protect and monitor access to the wells and communication tunnels between the citadels. Their patrols, both inside and outside, provide them many opportunities to enhance their knowledge of other peoples of Mornea.
In a sense, one could consider them as children trying to discover the world. This could explain their mood or the ease with which they can break their toys.
But this is only one aspect of it, they are also custodians of some of the memories of those who birthed them. The Chokers are selected from Pes~Hat who have no memory of hatred towards the surface. They can carry out their role and begin their evolution without being overwhelmed by feelings of revenge. Obviously, this is good for the Jade Triad.

I wasn't sure what that last sentence was trying to accomplish, so I took a guess.

I'm not sure about "sublimation." Maybe "epitome" works better?

Once I reread everything in the Genesis rulebook, the last sentence ("Obviously, this is not about the Jade Triad.") made sense, but I don't think it's necessary and that it will confuse people who don't have a strong grasp on Mornea's history.

I meant the mother will die. Shall I write "to prevent her" ?

You wrote "it" for the child. Don't you say "him" ?

Vegabond a écrit:Question, is Empty the name of a known place?
The far west, a large ocean, is known by the Utopian to be a desert without life. Perhaps "the void" will be better...

Vegabond a écrit:they accomplish difficult tasks

I meant tasks which requires strength. How would you say that ?

I like to prompt/encourage people reading the old fluff. And, new one will come...
How about "Obviously, this is not concerning the Jade Triad" ?

mallachain a écrit:I'm not sure about "sublimation." Maybe "epitome" works better?
I like your suggestion.
But "epitome" means taking the good part of something.
I prefer "sublimation" wich, in chemical terms, means transformation from solid to vapor state.

Good Very Happy

Thanks a lot.

-I meant the mother will die. Shall I write "to prevent her"?  YES

-You wrote "it" for the child. Don't you say "him"?  Yes, but if you meant the mother, it doesn't matter. In other places, you can say it because you don't know if "it" is a male or female.

-In that case, I would change it to "without being overwhelmed by feelings of revenge. Except where the Jade Triad is concerned."
