Hi,
I just started reading the ILH. Truly awesome.
However, I do have a few questions about the Imperial
Census boxes in the different sections.
- The populations always seem to add up to 100%,
suggesting that virtually no one outside of the listed
groups lives in those areas. This seems rather odd. I
would think that, for example, there would be at least
a few Darjiini in Kostaddi. It's right next-door after
all. Perhaps we are to assume that these are the
"in-game" Imperial censuses, and therefore not
neccesaraly accurate. If so, it would have been nice
to know who "really" lives where.
- I'm unsure about the use of the classification
"Lunar", in the censuses and elsewhere. I was under
the impression that the term usually refers to either
Imperial citizenship or adherence to the Lunar
religion, thus being more of a political/religious
classification than a cultural/racial one. I figured
almost all "Lunars" are also something else, such as
Darra Happan. The censuses seem to suggest that there
is an actual Lunar race. If so, where do they come
from, who are their ancestors, what clothes do they
wear, etc.? I can't find any description of "Lunars"
in the book other than the Imperial citizen
description.
Thanks,
David
