In Latin:

comment_intro_noble_liege = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, quamquam nōn agnōscō īnsigne. Sapis sum semper scīscēns prō bonōs mīlitēs ut battuant prō mē, aliquandō eī probant sēsē dīgnōs dē meī fidēlitātem."
comment_intro_noble_martial = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. No matter -- a brave warriors home is all the world, or so they say!"
comment_intro_noble_badtempered = "Egō don't recognize the device on your banner. No doubt another foreigner come to our lands, as if we didn't have so many here already."
comment_intro_noble_pitiless = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. Another vulture come to grow fat on the leftovers of war, no doubt!"
comment_intro_noble_cunning = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. Still, it is always worthwhile to make the acquaintance of people who may one day prove themselves to be great warriors."),
comment_intro_noble_sadistic = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. Perhaps you are the bastard child of a puffed-up cattle thief? Or perhaps you stole it?"
comment_intro_noble_goodnatured = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. Forgive my ignorance, warrior! It is good to make your acquaintance."
comment_intro_noble_upstanding = "Tē vexillum nōbilis portāre videō, but I do not recognize the device. No doubt you have come to these parts in search of wealth and glory. If this indeed is the case, then I only ask that you show mercy to those poor souls caught in the path of war."

A little note: I went with the Old English word order, which is very free like Latin. There are examples of set, quite strange syntaxes (like "Persecutions they received" for a normal sentence instead of "they received persecutions), but that is thought to originate from the fact that Greek Syntax affected written Gothic. For all intents and purposes they had the SVO germanic word order.

The rise of Islam? Probably the most important historical event between 500-1000?

Thanks for the answer, though I'd disagree on most important.

But no. In 500 most of the Arabs were Zoroastrians, some Jews and Christians. Still pretty interesting.

Well, no, the various Arab pagan beliefs were the dominant faith, beyond maybe the Persian client state. But yeah in any case your call on the setting.

Have you seen the size of Persia?

And no, this is historically accurate. I hate it when people try and dismiss something.  My mod respects history.
 
But the Lakhmids weren't zoroastrian, or persian. The sassanids didn't really bother exporting zoroastrianism because it was a religion of the upper class, just like islam was.

Arabs would have been christian, jewish or arab pagan before the rise of islam. No other faith really made it down there.
