Hm... what to say? I don't really know, but this is currently floating in the realm of inactivity...I'm not sure when I'll get back to writing this. I changed the title so that it properly translates to what I want it to in English. Thanks to the person who pointed this out to me. Yeah... that's about it.
--This is only 'Teen' because of very mild language and not that violent violence.
Also: I switched between writing first and third person, so I'm not sure how the narration turned out in others' opinions. Thanks.

HI. What is 'Guierror' - is it a corruption of 'guerrier'? What is Le Trillix? Your writing is too erudite for me, I think.

Trillix is Latin for "triple-twilled"...according to said dictionary. I don't speak french, as you can probably tell, and the title should actually be Le Guerrieur Trillix de la Corbeille (The Triple-twilled Warrior of the Waste/Basket/Wastebasket). I found out that most descriptive adjectives are placed AFTER the noun in french, so my title currently translates incorrectly into english.
I apologize to both French and English for neglecting capitalization of their names in the above paragraph.
Thanks for viewing even if you don't read! : )

And the title should be lower-case save the first letter...

trilix is the correct spelling, not trillix. However as you want the title in medieval French, you .. read moretrilix is the correct spelling, not trillix. However as you want the title in medieval French, you need the medieval French version of trilix.

Guerrior I can go with as I did some medieval French but you have put guierror. Why not put trillix .. read moreGuerrior I can go with as I did some medieval French but you have put guierror. Why not put trillix after guerrior? Trillix is spelt trilix in Latin. As the genitive of trilix is trilicis it would have derivated to trilice in medieval French. So you need Le Guerrior Trilice de la Corbeille.

The reason I wanted trilix before Guerrior is because I wanted the first letter of each of the four parts in LTGC to spell LTGC. I planned each part and its name to correspond to a character, the third part was supposed to correspond to Guerrior, the warrior. I guess I'll just rename parts two and three. Once again, thank you.
