Spelling?

Sorry if this has been talked about already; I only just did a brief search. I'm wondering if it should be "Wyrm" and not "Worm" when speaking of the dragon in Grimrock 2. I haven't completed the game yet so there may be something significant later that clarifies. I've seen that some typos were fixed in earlier updates, so maybe this just got missed. Perhaps it is due to the trickiness of English (homophones). Anyways, no biggie; fantastic game.

Alternatively, there's "Lindwürm", but that would require dipping into extended ASCII.

"Lindwyrm" is a bastardization that's probably only about 20 years old.

Also, I just saw the achievement where it is called a lindworm. Thanks.
