Gelebor reading an Ayleid reference text.

There isn't any more Falmer text than the Falmer stone, but Ayleidoon is very similar to the Falmer language (probably mutually intelligible).

Btw because I'm insane, Gilvar (Galthili) Bosmeris does actually have a dictionary which I'm updating as I go.

Basically, I chose to make my version of Bosmeris a specific archaic dialect, that way it leaves room for others to make Bosmeris words when roleplaying. The dialect Zath speaks is a bit out-of-date with the rest of Valenwood, because his clan remains cut-off from others and doesn't have that evolving exchange of language, but some words may still overlap. Aka, I want any of my roleplay buds to still be valid in their Bosmeris language-building cause I like sharing the creative space.

I use Ayleidoon, both extrapolated and canon, mixed with irl Scottish Gaelic and a few other languages (because there's so little canon Ayleidoon). For example, there's a bit of French patterning in this conjugation table, purely because the canon Ayleidoon word for "our" is "nou", and that reminded me of "nous" being "we". So I just changed it lol.

And here are some personal pronouns and possessives, extrapolated from canon Ayleidoon. The highlights are a bit hard to see, but they indicate a canon word/root.

To negate a word, one adds ney- to the beginning, but this is often just shortened to n' . So for an example of a verb Zath uses in some of the stuff I've posted, "a ney-arken" means "I do not understand/know" but he shortens it to "n'arken". When he asks it of the player character in the animation, he fuses it with Tamrielic, resulting in "d'ye ken it?" -> which is an equivalence I wanted to land with actual Scottish slang and not at all learned initially from The Dark Tower.

Scottish Gaelic and Scots are not languages/dialects I naturally know, so I use a lot of dictionary sources and sift through subreddits to find context on word usage from its native speakers. If it's a language you speak, I'm extremely open to feedback on my usage. I chose it to supplement Ayleidoon because of the elves all having vaguely English accents in the games, and I felt like we could expand to more of the languages present in the British Isles.

WAIT IVE FOUND THIS ON UESP Despite the death of its creator, the Clockwork City lived on. In secret, Sotha Sil had created a mechanical Heart of Lorkhan which would continue to power the city and its inhabitants even after Sil's demise. Because the city remained functional, even the Clockwork Apostles remained in the city. However, stories tell of a Forgotten Hero who followed a former apostle, Mecinar, into the city to prevent the latter from claiming the Heart. The stories have different ends

OH GOOD NICE EXCELLENT! Because Luciana is particularly tied to the city, she is 90% mechanical and she cannot leave so if the city dies she will die with it and that made me sad but I am glad the city will live on, Sotha Sil did really think ahead of himself and Luciana might even keep the peace and order around once he is dead. Same goes for Varuni and a lot of other apostles we meet because they all cannot leave but I am glad they will be okay. Also the different ends are Cancelled.
