This is a rough look at my upcoming Oblivion fic which follows Ruma Camoran as the last Dragonborn to survive the Oblivion Crisis. Baurus repeatedly attempts to change her morals to align with the imperial throne, but she does not budge. Baurus gives up and pursues the Knights of the Nine, much to Ruma’s chagrin, but when she tries to intercept she finds herself in Pelinal Whitestrake’s shadow and is cursed with his own madness.
This was supposed to be a 1 day animatic but ended up turning into a 3 day animation ,:] whoops. I had fun tho. Hopefully I can start working on my fic trailer again now that this is out of my system
Repurposing this blog to document my worldbuilding ‼️ my first post will be about the language because it will be used frequently throughout this blog from now on...
Hetæbe - The People's Tongue
Hetæbe, meaning "people's tongue" (not to be compared with Qaqōæbe, "god's tongue", an incomprehensible concept more than a real language) is a language established in Çicæxa'Xahishi, the realm of the godthing Cacophany, or locally known as Qaqōhani.
The image linked depicts the "çetil" which is to say the alphabet, along with some example words in hetæbe script with English translations and spellings.
The second image includes examples of words and concepts deemed important enough to have devoted symbols.
Side note, I tweaked pronunciation so things like "Qaqohet" are instead spelled "Qaqōhet" now.
Below this line is a long pronunciation guide.....
Sound translations, I'm not a linguist so it's mostly spelled out
A - Ah
Ā - Ay
B - Buh
C - Dental click, found in languages such as Xhosa or Zulu
Ç - Sss
D - Duh
E - Eh
Ē - Ee
F - Fff
G - Guh
H - Guttural h sound, found in languages such as Hebrew or Arabic, with the exception of its appearance after a ç or t in which it would make a shh or thh sound
I - Ihh
J - Zhh
K- Kuh
L - Luh
M - Mm
N - Nn
O - Oo
Ō - Oh
Ö - Ow
P - Puh
Q - Alveolar click (see above for click language examples)
R - Rr unless used before an h, in which it is rolled and the h is not pronounced
S - Sah
T - Tuh as pronounced against the teeth and not the roof of the mouth
U - Uh
Ū - Yew
V - Vah
Y - Yah
X - Lateral click (see above for click language examples)
Z - Zzz
Æ - Eye
Sounds added since my initial alphabet that are not easy to spell
Č - The sound of the center of the lips separating while light suction is applied, in other words think of blowing a kiss, it should be a clean and quick click, the teeth are parted in the mouth
Ć - Same principle as the previous sound except that more of the lips are used and the sound is longer and less clean, think of blowing a long dramatic kiss instead of a quick one, more suction is applied, teeth are together
Ng - A sound made by closing the throat and humming, long a longer form of the sound at the end of an -ing word always followed by vowels
H– - Sucking air in through the teeth
H— - An inhale with the tongue drawn back in the mouth
These do not have devoted letters yet, I need to make them.......
Literally never played Oblivion before, yet it has come to my attention that local hot man is being twinkified. Rest assured I'm investigating the issue and will take the proper steps to resolve the issue. 🫡
