A new article at the official Dark and Light site focuses on the game's Bestiary.
I - The new nomenclature.

Over the years, while each race, tribe even, were naming, in their dialect, the creatures that wander the lands of Ganareth, it became difficult for them to communicate with one another without starting a quarrel.

The Society of Zoologists from the Al Drifa Academy, reuniting the most eminent researchers from the different peoples, therefore decided to establish order. Each creature was renamed, drawing from the collective mythology, but some discussions were more arduous than others.

For example, for centuries, fond of their mounts, the humans refused to change the name of the Dodos and the Ranchos, and nothing came of it! Even the proposition of “Dod’O”, although close and corresponding to the new rules of naming (race’ sub race) were stoically refused.

The Zoologists counted nearly 250 creatures in the world.
