Geldish

Known, according to the merchant council of Geldris, as the Golden Tongue. Geldish is actually descended from Tenebri, the rumoured language of the hidden people. Tenebri is historically associated with liars and tricksters. The merchant council of Geldris deny any possible connection and have repeatedly asked me to stop telling people that there is one. Some people just can't handle the truth apparently. For it is in fact true. The historical connection is undeniable and traces Tenebri can be readily seen in Geldish if you know where to look. Notably in it's written form. Geldish is written in grids rather than lines with each word forming a "box" which can be read in many different ways. The writer must include a "key" which tells the reader in which order to read the symbols and thus determine the meaning behind them. In everyday usage people usually read in a turnwise spiral from the centre outwards. However the only other language known the be naturally cyphered in this way is Tenebri. When having this evidence pointed out to them, the representative of the merchant council of Geldris pointed out that someone could leave their office through the door or the 4th floor window. After this interesting philosophical observation, conversation broke down and they have since refused all attempts at further contact.
