Thala - Thah-lah
From "Thalassa," Ancient Greek for sea, as in Thalassophobia. Uses the "long A" vowel for both, like "do re mi fa so la ti do"
Bathiss - Bath-iss
From "Bathys," Greek for deep, as in Bathysphere.
Even though in the original word y signifies ee, I've been pronouncing it like bath(tub) + iss like "hiss", because American English is bonkers.

Re: How to Pronounce Your Name
So now me and Lahki's player are arguing over whether this writeup means that Master N'jork's name is
1) Na [glottal-stop] Jork (like pork with a J)
or
2) Na [glottal-stop] Juh-orr-kuh (separating each piece as written)
At the very least I'll stop using "Nuh [glottal stop] York"...
Edited to Add:
Per discussion on Discord, it was confirmed as Na-Jork

Ainur Saan
Ainur = Ay (Sounds like letter 'I') + Noor (like 'lure' and not like 'door')
Saan = Long/double 'a'. As the beginning of 'sanatorium' but pronounced as if saying the exclamation 'ah' with an 'S' and an 'n' on either side.
