Creation and Usage Notes

So I got saddled with this word for the world in Arena of Valor. I thought I could get around it by saying that one of the daughter languages of Veda was the origin of the term, but they wanted it to be pronounced roughly like "Athanor" (i.e. as you'd expect it in English) in Veda—the language with no [θ]. I came up with this—"the promise of hope"—which I thought worked well enough, and basically just said it's pronounced with the schwa in the middle, even though it shouldn't be. I had another word for "world" (sunyan) which I also kept, but it became generic (like "Earth" vs. "world"). I like my word better. The etymology works out well enough, though, I think. The actual pronunciation comes to us from Gandal via Afata.
