It’s a Final Fantasy XIV thing. Stars are called suns, and planets are called stars. This narration happens near the end of the Endwalker expansion and a ten-year-long story arc, and I won’t say more because spoilers.

Uff, okay. So that was a quote? I assume there is a reason they did this (from my perspective bad) relabeling. (From my perspective bad because FF is often played by a younger audience and they are at risk to learn the terminomolgy wrong and keep that for their whole life. causing potential misunderstandings and embarrassings)

Like Mortal Kombat.
I reddit somewhere that a whole class was confused.

If a kid learns these words from a video game with dragons, magic, and fluffy moogles flying everywhere, it’s really a failure of education and parenting that the kid wasn’t taught the basics of science and the difference between reality and fiction.
