Default Re: Sombre Rebalance: Polod EA, MA

It's not original to me. I found it in Wikipedia-and I quote:

"The genetive plural of the name Kołodziej is Kołodziejów, which allegorically means "wheel of time". The genitive form of the name Piast is Piasta, which also means "the hub of the wheel". Gallus Anonymus reports an invocation stating that his successors' eyes would shine like stars.
The term "Piast Dynasty", referring to the early rulers of the Polans and Poland, was introduced by historian Adam Naruszewicz (1733-1796)."

Since "Wheel of Time" would get many people thinking "Robert Jordan", I necessarily had to discount it. "The Hub of the Wheel" sounds more..."nationey", anyway.
