@ Taco Bot:
Thans for your help! I fixed the mistakes.
@Pepsi Ranger: Thanks for the link. It is pretty cool that a university offers support for all sorts of writing, not only reports and university-related things.
I'll post the next short part. I have a feeling that this time I added to many commas. xD
“Daniel, build up the tent!” The brown haired boy near the fire orders. His comrade raises, bows and walk over to the place where the three have put their belongings. The cracking sound of the firewood is joined by Daniel's rattling with tent poles and rustling of fabric.
The boy near the fire closes his eyes and rubs his forehead. He sights.
“Rim, tell me a story.” he says turning his gaze towards the woman leaning against the stone.
“A story, young Second Sand Mage?” she answers with a soft voice. She does not seem to be moving at all.
The boy addressed as Second Sand Mage frowns. “You heard what I said, didn't you Rim?”
The woman smiles lightly at his angry tone and sits straight up. “As you wish, young Second Sand Mage, I will tell you the story of my treason and Shara's mercy.”
“Rim, I know that story, and I was there as it happened. Tell me something different!”
“Oh ...”
“I'm waiting.”
Rim's expression is hard to tell, by the cloth covering her eyes, but she seem to be caught off guard by the boys demand for an other story. “One upon a time...,” she says to buy some time and then she starts to tell the first story that crosses her mind.
@misac:
I'm learning japanese for several years.
I consider this a very hard language, compared to english or german.
But when I was in Japan, I saw that many people from other asian countries did not have the difficulties (or had other advantages, like the writing is silimar) that I had.
On the other had, I think spanish or other european(?) languages are somewhat similar, so if you know french well, you can guess a lot od spanish or maybe italian language as well.
I came to think, what langagues you consider difficult depends on where you're native language is located, more or less.
Wow, this is going a bit off-topic. xD
But should i ever try to translate the game i'll think of this.

There were a couple commas missing in that last text, and one too many. I'd like to disagree with what Taco Bot said about commas; I was never good at English, but my last English teacher got angry at me for unnecessarily using commas in sentences like "The bird landed on the stone, and began to peck at snails."
Still, there are some mistakes. Here are corrections:
1. "Daniel, build up the tent!" the brown haired boy near the fire orders.
2. He sighs.
3. (Missing comma) "Rim, tell me a story," he says, turning his gaze towards the woman leaning against the stone.
4. (Removed comma) Rim's expression is hard to tell due to the cloth covering her eyes...
5. ...she seems to be caught off guard by the boy's demand for another story.
6. (Missing and extra commas) "Once upon a time..." she says to buy some time, and then she starts to tell the first story that crosses her mind.
With #6, I'm not sure whether a comma should go after ... but I think it looks better without.

This is in fact that consensus within the linguistic community, as well.
It makes me really happy to see people coming together from all over the globe to make games using OHR stuff. I guess it's not something I would normally expect!
After looking a this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_English-speaking_population and sorting it by number of english speakers, I think it is kinda surprising that we haven't got any visitors from India (that I know about)
