#emaran language

The name of "chirans" I got for Teya's species was given to me by an old forum mate from years and years ago. I only realized later that they likely got it from kirin.

However, Chirans used to be a species made up of a random assortment of furries, not equines (can you smell the influence 2Kinds had on me as a kid?). So Chiran = kirin only came to be, after I remade the species into equines following the end of MLP.

But as I developed the species more, I decided to expand them beyond being simply equine, taking cues from both the Kirins from MLP and the mythological Kirin. Now, there are other ethnicities of Chiran that resemble other hooved creatures.

Bunaylo - goat

Kalaylo - deer

Kapaylo - horse
