Hi everybody! Does anyone have an idea of what the mages or priests are saying when they are casting a spell of some school ?

Welcome to Ironworks, Lich King!! [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img]

In short, some (or all) of the wordings are Latin. Everything else is just speculation.

[I only mention this because I didn't see it when I skimmed the threads... I always thought the one spell was something like "vita, mortis, CARDIA"... Life, Death, & the Heart(?)]

As I have said, we can only guess. Everyone hears it in his own way. Is it cardia or carria or something else, nobody knows. Except perhaps Bioware. We should ask them.

Actually I think it's "vita, mortis, careo". Careo means something like "be without, lack, want", so I think it's quite logical with vita and mortis. Anyway, as Vedran suggested, I have asked the Bioware boys (or girls) to reveal this secret. Hope the answer is coming soon.
