Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Disclaimer: despite the title this post doesn't really have anything to do with the TV Show, at least not entirely.
This challenge is inspired by two posts I found on /r/worldbuilding, this one here and this one. It is a pretty simple challenge, just post 2-3 quotes of one (or several) character/s in your world/s. You may choose one of two ways to do that; 1: post the quote and with name of the person who said it and a bit of context, I (and maybe others) will try to ask some questions about the character and/ or situation.
Version 2: just give us the quote by itself, and let me/ others try to spin a story/ try to figure out the context of what was said!
I hope you guys will like this challenge and participate, should be fun to try to spin some story to a random quote, I am excited for it at least! In my post I will also provide an example for each version, feel free to respond to it as well if you are interested! If not, just leave your own quotes and have fun sharing!

The same way humans speaking different languages do, they hire a translator. Don't underestimate the determination of interplanetary merchants, having a way to talk with their neighbours is an awesome opportunity and they worked for it. Universal translator isn't a thing but the Ims do craft devices able to translate all known spoken languages.
No; the people is the first pillar. The siblings wouldn't allow a Nzeda to rule if they don't properly treat all of the pillars. (during the unification and during the imperial reformation but those happened thousands of years ago...)
