[Artemisia] Historical Terms

[rcfaevans at comcast.net]

A perspective from a transplant from the east....

There are a number of terms that differ significantly from Kingdom to Kingdom.  I found that I had to re-learn a bunch of things when I moved from Atlantia to Artemesia.  Some examples:

Eric (is this spelled correctly?)  This term is never used in the East.  The terms are either List or List-Field
Hospitillar.  Castellan.
Lordship.  Everyone with an Award or Grant is a Lord in the East.  Peers and those with Baronages are the only ones refered-to with their special titles.
Collegium.  University

I find these subtle differences to be interesting, Period, and an addition to the richness and flavor of the Society.  I really don't think we need worry about our Youth using a different term for their form of combat.
