How can I love or hate Inquisitors when I'm engaged in the same craft? To be precise, I should enclose my description of Ashan in quotation marks and then add a copyright symbol, as is now fashionable, but I just can't be bothered. Is Ashan the future? It seems humanity is actually degenerating, to the point where the Mongol nation will develop long fangs, crooked faces, and clawed paws? What's the point of such racism? And with magic, it will be Arcanum, yes. But will it start to replace technology, rather than the other way around? You know, it seems much more plausible that Ashan is not Earth, but another fantasy world. A parallel one? And why must our planet necessarily feature in computer games?

In Might and Magic, it is very likely that our planet is featured in the background, although I don't know about the Ashan universe. Regarding the translation: Nival simply messed it up. When Ubisoft gave instructions regarding the names, they told Nival to give the world the name Ashan, so that it wouldn't sound similar to the French supermarket chain, but as a result, Ashan ended up in the main, English version, while the Russian version retained Ashan. So, Ashan is probably the correct name.

...and in the second and first Might and Magic...:D :D
There were no Craig Hakes in the second and first Might and Magic.

Only Markel's skull remains. I wonder who killed Markel and when? Maybe someone knows.

Faidaen, Zehir, and Godric, if my memory serves me right.
But in some add-on, it turns out that Markel is alive... I wonder, in which one?

In the second part of the game, you could play as Krag-Hak... He's there, a redhead in a helmet with horns...

I was also confused about the game worlds at first...) The only thing that seems strange in the Asylum of the Academy is seeing it on sand...

As for Ashan and Ashkhan, both are correct. Ashan is the correct translation, but I think Ashkhan sounds better, and our translators probably thought so too, which is why they did it that way. The meaning is almost the same:smile02:
Ashkhan not only sounds better, but also logically connects with the plot: the goddess who created the world is called ASHHA - accordingly, the world is ASHHA-n.

Actually, Markela finally killed Zephyr, who ended up in the parallel Reality of the Ring.

Ashan not only sounds better, but also logically ties into the plot: the goddess who created the world is named ASHA, so the world is ASHAN.

It's not a certainty, not a certainty... In some sources, the spider queen is indeed named ASHA (I tend to think that this is the correct version). Hence, ASHAN. Asha and Ashan were chosen precisely because of their pleasant sound. It's like sushi, sashimi, and Doshirak – because many people would find it unpleasant to try sushi, sashimi, and Doshirak.
