View original postGreeks a nice one cause you can bust out 'Archon', one of those titles that sounds properly bad ass and isn't as overused as Emperor or King.
It sounds interesting, its alway more fun to read stuff by people you know. I'd offer myself as an alpha reader but my only two modes are usually 'I liked it' or the sorts of extreme nitpicking that don't help a story, I think last time I unloaded on someone for their insistence on having railroads, which typically weigh about a hundred tons a league, but having steel armor so incredibly expensive only nobles could afford it even though the odds of a reader giving a shit were minimal, and I'm about ten times worse with sci-fi.

Wait, so they had a 19th-century style, iron-built, steam railway in an otherwise medieval fantasy environment?

If your goal is a common-use word I'd vote /pen tek/, it seems to be quick and comfortable. *NM*

This is what I would go with. Granted, at some level it becomes an issue of transliteration. *NM*
