I think it's about time I gather my tribe's vocabulary and nomenclature. I've put this off too long and I am surprised how much I actually have... Please feel free to offer suggestions and/or critique. I am not good with languages. :P

I am trying to convey a sense of "elegant orcen" with the Kaaer language. It is a amalgamation of orcen, Kuglimz and Antislar nomenclature with a sprinkling of Styrash (from the Lost Ones' influence).

No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith. And that, I fear, for any reasoning, conscious being, would be the cruelest trick of all.

A suggestion for the Kaaer'dar'shin dagger? "hol'noq". A part of the stalker

Good idea, Valan. How about:

noq - stalker
h'ak - sword (blade) (orcen)
y' - small (orcen)

y'noq'ha'k (lit. "(small) stalker blade/sword")

pronounced "ee - noke (rhymes with "poke") - hack"

The word could possibly shortened from that formal term to simply "noq'hak" (lit. "stalker blade") which is smoother to pronounce.

Waiiiiiit!   (Bard staggers back with a pile of Unfinished Projects so high her arms are trembling)  Let me stuff mine in there before you lock the room!  *looks guiltily around and snatches the Quenyss parchment off the top of the stack*

I'm amazed you can see the Altario projects pile considering it is dwarfed by my unfinished projects. For which I apologise.
