Hello! I'm writing a new story and wanted to introduce a new tribe but I couldn't find something like a "Harish dictionary". Maybe there's someone here who could help me out. Actually I only need a Harish name for "Blue mountains". Thanks!

I think the nearest to a harish dictionary are the glossaries in SOME editions of the first trilogy. In the newer books, A Raven Bound With Lilies has a glossary. Or there are the lexicons in the Wraeththu RPG. But in all those cases, the lists are only there to define terms unfamiliar to a new reader, e.g. churgeon, rehuna, nayati.

Mostly, IMHO, it seems that hara either (a) go back to an old name for something (e.g. the 'Alba' in Alba Sulh, or Alkebulahn for Africa); (b) corrupt/shift an original name (Lund for London); or (c) they invent something new (Megalithica). So I guess that means you get to pick something cool which fits your story's themes!

Thanks a lot you for your advice.I think I'll use simply a bastardized form of Latin and call them Caerumon tribe.
