Ludwag
High Sindaryn - The language that is associated with elves and drow, it spent centuries developing within the continent of Ludwag. It sounds like a sophisticated language, and is also complex to learn when it comes to reading and writing Ludwagian characters. Drow, although speaking the same language, have a more “defined” way of speaking it, as they have their own accent. High Sindaryn is used most commonly in the lands of the Silvic elves.
· Aridian - What some call the "refined" form of High Sindaryn. This language sounds and feels smooth, nimble and direct, Aridian and High Sindaryn speakers can mutually understand one another fairly well, having only a few words differentiating from one another.
- Tallariic - The language of the Tallarii is a difficult one for many to understand, it derives from Aridian. Being referred to as Tallariic, its words are composed of harmonic hums of the throat and higher pitched accent tones to punctuate and to split words apart. Even native Aridian speakers would have a hard time understanding most aspects of the language.
- Pyrian - This is the form of High Sindaryn whose grammar and lexicon was uniformly taught and enforced by Pyrosi law. It was extinct but suddenly reintroduced to Azura with the appearance of Amare, where it is most commonly spoken. It is at once both simplistic and archaic, having been enforced in Pyros to improve communication throughout the empire, but containing many words and grammar that may seem eccentric or pretentious to modern speakers of High Sindaryn. It is mutually intelligible to speakers of Silvic, Aridian, and Meridian dialects.
- Nixian - A language deriving from Monic, but very distinct from it. It could be compared to the difference between modern day English and German.
