If it were me, i'd straight up ask "that looks beautiful, do you want to marry me, ria?" in a teasing manner.
when she surprisingly answered "Yes" in an eager way, i changed into a serious tone "Then let's marry.. both of us", grabbed her hands softly while intensely look at her shy eyes.
@Tamerlane From Wikipedia: "A lingua franca also known as a bridge language, common language, trade language, auxiliary language, vehicular language, or link language, is a language or dialect systematically used to make communication possible between groups of people who do not share a native language or dialect, particularly when not one of the speakers' native languages."
why the fuck are the beds solid wood with no bedding? It's not like even real medieval settings didn't have some kind of softening or another, like worst case you got something like hay. What's the purpose of having a bed that's the same material as the floor? Just sleep on the floor then.
Dude probably knows nothing about medieval architecture. I mean, it was usual for peasants to sleep on the floor. The caveat being that the floor was made out of soft plants that would simply be thrown out and replaced when they started rotting. At least that's the current belief. When it comes to commoner living it's pretty hard to find anything concrete. Archeology only goes so far as well since it's biological material.
@Fari
There seemed to be some sort of bedding before they claimed the beds and laid the sleeping bags on top of them. The kids' bed has bedding. They probably piled up the bedding on the kids' bed as the others preferred the sleeping bag.
To be fair, I knew what a Pyrrhic victory was but had no idea who Pyrrhus was before reading your comment.
But I get your point, using a term named after a person whos from another world is kind of weird, but can easily get chocked up to the "translation magic".
They might use another term entirely and get it translated into whatever they are closest too.
Probably is just a weird choice of the translation team tho.

I am aware of the definition of "lingua franca" but the issue is that it's a Latin term with a specific history, so I'm more curious how this term arose in this completely alien culture.
