      I’ve heard all manner of Greek, Akkadian and Egyptian, but I can’t place that language, friend.

      Wait… are you one of those Mediterranean-based humans? Because I don’t have any bronze, okay?

        Shut!
        You are now part of our glorious Empire, rejoice at once for you are being assimilated into the great culture of sucking on wolf tiddies and totally not copying art of everyone else.

        Also you now need to produce olive oil in vast quantities, bcs we need it. We will pay you with our money that we will later collect as additional taxes (on top of your regional ones, those stay).

    In Old English man was gender neutral, with the gendered terms being Werman and Wifman (this is where the word werewolf comes from), so the correct gender neutral term for sea dwelling people would be would be “seamen”. Thank you, and good night.
