Why are the people of Wyveria (keepers) not Wyverian?

[dgresevfan]

This is bothering me. Plot hole or yet to be explained? All the keepers appear to be fully human and they claimed to be the descendants of the people of Wyveria.

It's an odd name for a city of humans considering there's a species called Wyverians...

Didn't they left and move away into Suja? there bunch Wyverian from Wyveria moved to Suja after stuff happened

The wudwuds explain they use to filter the water for wyveria a long time ago (or at least imply it) so i assumed the humans were also a bit of a servant class. So the keepers were the workers who kept the torch and guardians for wyveria the same way the wudwuds were the water filter workers... i assume that the oil field people are descendants from the same type of thing.

I could be wrong but thats how i took it.

It's kinda like the people of the holy roman empire becoming turkish. If you don't understand history, it's not my problem.

It's just a mistake in naming/localization.

Everyone from Wyveria is a Wyverian, in the way being from Europe means you are European. And Wyverian is already an existing word with another meaning (race of people with wyvern-like features).

They could have named this ancient city anything, they just chose the dumbest option.
