Winds that Sing: The Song of The Oran

When I first started developing the continents and the beastlands, one song from Lunar: Dragonsong stuck out.




Eventually, this music described to me the continent of Oran, where the plains-people dwell. Since "oran" simply means flat expanses of grass, plains, their "town", it has recently become proper for pilots or those referring to the land to call it The Oran.

It is still considered proper to say Oranese, however The Oran people is a better translation of what they call themselves.

They don't have it as bad as the Nitolo. Since the continent was found long before they found the people, Nitou never really ended up being called Shaldu nor their people Shaldoon.

The more you know!
