Protected: Light a Candle for Me

In Calenta, there was an old tradition – born out of a much older story, and that itself born out of an ancient event – that you did not count the dead as gone until the cold season had passed without them returning to life.

They had honored Talmizhaab when her body had been found, of course, and laid the body to rest in the crypts below the school. Davenpor had said the words he needed to…

Formation of the Bitrani Enclaves

It will be allowed for up to 22% of the Bitrani population (that number to be determined by those identified as Bitrani on the census) to live in what will hereafter be referred to as enclaves.

WIthin the enclave, Bitrani are allowed self-governance, including religion, law,…

“And then what happened?”

Kietsap was – well, not exactly jealous, more like irritated. Riensin knew why, although he didn’t know if his twin understood it.  

“Well, then we talked to The Emperor’s Voice and Eyes, Elalekorra, and then Lirnilalie walked in.  It turns out she’s a Princess. Or she was, I suppose, since they took away the beginning of her name.”  He shook his head. “She is rather…

Book 2, Chapters 7-11: Kagnyaa

This takes place after Book 2

“You have to leave your room for something other than classes at some point.”  Kagnyaa’s teammates were standing outside her door, Govezze calling in through the slightly-opened door.  They were taking their lives in their hands, risking irritating martial house.

“I don’t see any reason to do that.”

A Quick conlang Post on Reiassan & Calenyen

I’ve been doing a bit of conlang over on Patreon this month as I play with people’s names in Reiassan and their post-Edally titles. But I realized that a core concept of Calenyen, the language, had no word: Use Time to fix that! Calenyen has three grammatical genders: Useful/of Use – toka Useless/with no use – tyok Beyond use – etok  -tok- is used only in this setting and for nothing else. …
