I wish you had read the novel before "correcting" Southron to 'Southern'! You are at least the third person to make this bogus mistake. Get a dictionary! "Southron" is a traditional poetic way of referring to the South, especially favored by the secessionists (who probably got it from their beloved Sir Walter Scott, a man who has much to answer for in terms of romanticized nonsense). The term "Southron" is used constantly and consistently throughout the novel.--Orange Mike 13:25, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
