He is clearly looking for the name of a massif (bluff, prominence, cliff, etc.) feature. Unclear is what the "date me level" refers to.

Perhaps referring to the Stone Face or cave on Oja2?

It's my understanding that the great crystal extends all the way to the surface. The weather is just a natural thing with the size of the cavern, much like large hangers can have weather events on the inside.

If it's about the nature of the rock I have no idea. As for the roof itself... I've always supposed people would just call it 'the sky' (well most likely the common tongue has its dedicated own word for it). It's not like they would have any other type of 'sky' to compare it with, except maybe in old tales.

Just to get it more specific: "Yliakum" is only the world inside the stalactite, and most inhabitants may not know (for certain) that there is something outside, and even the stalactite appears only as one possible theory to them? In this case it may not be a big surprise that they may not have a very common name for "the cave surrounding Yliakum". Not to mention even "the planet around the cave", beyond the Stone Labyrinth leading to its surface.

Next question.

What textiles are there? I can figure there are various leathers. I think there is something like a wool. Are there any plant textiles?

You will probably assume that all characters wear textiles when they don't wear other armor. More or less except Kran. Robes will be textiles too.

But if they are made rather of wool or cotton, even a kind of flax (couchgrass)... ???

I fear botanic has left us already. ;D

For sure there are leather, wool (kormi wool) and silk (from arangma silk); there will be more in the future I think :)

I think I've heard references to satin and linen... But I don't think it was anything official.
