HIGH BOROS

The stilted and archaic language of ancient Hyperborea and the littleknown land of its origin in Boros on the World Roof provides the common roots of or contributes to almost all human languages in Akados and Libynos today, and bits and pieces have found their way into non-human languages such as Elven as well. However, despite this universal relation that the language has to so many others, it is an all-but-dead language itself, more likely to be found in old tomes and dusty archives than on the lips of living speakers. Only two locations in Akados continue to use a version of High Boros: the anachronistic city of Freegate and the Berrini living between Irkaina and the Northlands. Even in those cases, most know and use Common with visitors or while abroad.
