Trivia
Forochel is referral for country called Finland, one of the countries of northern Europe. Many of the names are actually Finnish. For example Jänis-leiri means Rabbit-camp, Korkea-järvi means High-lake and Talvi-múri means Winter-wall, though there is no letter "ú" in Finnish language, but the letter means that "u", actually "u" two times. So Talvi-múri should be in real Finnish Talvi-muuri.
Also some NPC names are in Finnish.
