Well, so far we haven't seen anything written on the trolls of Ralios, who are about the only people in Genertela (west of Prax) whom Arkat did not betray.

Obviously we'd love to have King of Dragon Pass translated into as many languages as possible. But since it has over 462 000 words of English text, nobody's been willing to do it. (And this ignores the programming that would be necessary to accomodate languages with different grammar than English, which I suspect is all of them).
