It means you can't justify having signs over the inn, wanted posters in town, or any number of other things because they wouldn't be worth the effort without people being able to read them. Some people may be fine with this, but it doesn't really work for me. POL is still potentially a high fantasy setting, it's just one with lots of dark and unexplored parts of the map.I have no problem with having multiple human languages though, but that doesn't necesarily mean you can't still have common. In this case I'd think of common kind of like English....it's far from a unniversal language but in any major city your likely to find many people who speak it well enough to communicate with you.</blockquote>
