So, it's spelled "Arek" several places, and "Arak" in others. Is Arak the spelling, or is there some subtlety here that is not being pointed out? - Slitherrr 22:48, 25 August 2009 (EDT)
Nah, no real subtlety. My stock answer is that, just like in our world, words can have a variety of spellings and so they are both correct. This is a tremendously unsatisfying answer to everyone who does wiki stuff. ;) FWIW, it is pronounced "R-EK" so probably Arek is closer to right. -gm
