Star Wars: The Clone Wars #6 by Le Tang

"Part of making the world of Elemental was creating the Fire culture & this is some exploration I did for their language. I started by imagining that the writing resembles smoke ascending even thinking it would be written from the bottom up

I thought the constants would be based on sounds you hear from a crackling fire & used symbology related to fire like flame, volcano, and sun as nouns

Smartly Peter Sohn used professional linguists for the final language but it was still nerdishly fun for me to explore" – Le Tang
