NEVER MIND!

I think the "Heiligen Befehle" are tomes, books, scripts etc.


Hello there!

From time to time I stumble accross the Five Sacred Orders for which the dictionaty has "Heilige Befehle".

I'm a bit stumped here. Could it be that "Orders" here are not "Befehle" but "Orden" as in "Gemeinschaft"?

E.g.: Then came Danon, requesting to see Five Sacred Orders. He didn't know that all chief Hunei knew about fighting and wars came from Five Sacred Orders's Water Order...

What do you think?

Cheers,
Frank

Hello Atari800XL,

I have put the term into the dictionary. Like you, I stumbled across this sentence and thought the same thing you did. However, in all other occurences of the term "five sacred orders" the German "Orden" doesn't fit very well, in my opinion.
Do you agree?
