Dwarvish

The language of the Dwarves and the language of commerce a long time ago. Dwarves used to be the chief tradesman and merchant across Kesia and their language spread with them. However, Common quickly took control of business, leaving it to be a secondary language for anyone that wasn't a dwarf.

The study of Dwarvish has revealed that it has some connection to Terran, the Earth Elemental dialect of Primordial. This could tie in with the Dwarf's intrinsic knack for mining and stonework but there haven't been any confirmations as of the 980s of the Age of Strife.

Geographical Distribution

Dwarvish is common in mountains and hills, serving as a major language in the Dwarve lordships and kingships across Kesia. Flokia is the pinnacle example for this thanks to Dwarves dominating the entire region but this can only be seen in Torzhokia, Lalas, Guildland, and even as far as Capra and the mountains of Haejon before the Spellplague.
