Like I get that technically “Mortification” is the name of the arenas that the trials take place in. But wouldn’t “you have bested the theatres of the mortification trials” make more sense and be consistent with the grammar used elsewhere? Its always “mortis trials” not “mortis’s trials”.
This is a really minor thing but it bugs me now that I have noticed it. Its just weirdly inconsistent.
Its probably just for grandiose sounding “Mortis’s” doesn’t roll off the tongue and “you have bested the Mortis Trials” doesn’t sound as pomp.
As much as I hate AI slop, LLM do have a rather strong command of correct grammar, so I asked ChatGPT:
Make of that what you will.
Well I don’t think this is grammatically incorrect. It does make sense here as Mortification is the place and the trials are the things that it has, and there are multiple trials in that location. So you can complete “Mortification’s trials”. ChatGPT seems to not quite understand that, probably due to lack of context.
The issue I have is that literally everywhere else it is just called the “Mortification Trials”, as in a title of something, that is grammatically inconsistent with the other use. I guess the trials there are also called “Mortification Trials” and the location is also called Mortification. But it is just weird to mix the use of “Mortification’s trials” and “Mortification Trials” as Mortification’s trials are the Mortification Trials.
