Erik opens the door, "Hello! Are you here to give some new recruits? Bring 'em in" (Russian is based of ancient greek not germanic. I, as a half-russian german should know that.) (Actually, outside of some parallels, the languages don't have much in common. Russian is based off of Slavic, which is based off of Germanic. I researched this for ten minutes, and couldn't find a thing saying it was connected to Ancient Greeks in anyway, shape, or form.) (After also investing a small amount of time into a research i found out that greek apparently, is also an indogermanic language, stemming from the same root as russian. So that´s why my folks claimed that ancient greek has influenced modern russian and why some greek and russian glyphs look very similar. I appologize for my mistake.)
