1601 who is sogren vell or where it is?..
1613 cannot gather this idiom from different words. what should they bring? does it means "to become angry"?
1601:
"The Sogren Vell" is a place name I made up for an AD&D campaign I was running. Sometimes when I'm making up place names I'll make up a description of the place and slurr the words to imply that it's been distorted by hundreds of years of language evolution. "Consonental Drift" as it were.
For example: The very real place my parents grew up is Bristol England. Bristol comes from "Bridge Town" (Brigstow) slurred eventually into Bristol.
One that I've made up is "Shallmar" (where Shawn -one of the characters from the Bardic Challenge story- comes from.) The city is a busy port town, so I called it "Shallow Mark" and slurred it into Shallmarr.
The Sogren Vell (where the Calipha of Umbril, Vanessa, comes from) is a land that lies along the southern shore of North Falania, known for it's beautiful rolling countryside. I called it The Southern Green Vale and it slurred to "The Sogren Vell" or just "The Sogren" for short.
1613:
Lion is referring to a sort-of idiom. "Bring it!" It's used to accept a challenge. It sort of means "You don't scare me" and "I can take anything you can dish out". Thus:
"Don't mess with me or I'll destroy you!"
"Bring it!"
So what Lion is asking is "Has the challenge been issued? Have we officially been challenged and can now fight back?"
