I just wrote a new book about monsters in Illarion with the help of my good friend PO Harok. I have a couple of technical questions before submitting it to the Illarion community.
1. As we included dialogues in the various descriptions, there are several line breaks in the pages (\n). Will that affect the 200 chars limit for one page, in long sentences? That is: Is the unused portion of the line counting in the total number of chars?
2. To introduce dialogues, we first used double dashes, but then they are part of the script shell. Are French quotation marks («...») an acceptable alternative in the book script, or, for that, could we use En dash (–) or Em dash (—) to introduce direct speech.
Thanks
PO Leva Beliu

And so Hadrian was a llama, and that's all he ever talked about. "I love llamas,\" he said.
In book that I wrote I think I just used regular quotation marks around speech, and it worked fine.
