The High Holy Speech
The ancient language of the Brisingelion and the Shining Ones, brought to Edras from the great beyond many thousands of years ago. In modern Edras, the High Holy Speech is used as a sacred language for priests and priestesses of the Brisingelion, but is only spoken fluently by the deities, scions, and their divine servants. Most Culled Soulborn know at least a few simple prayers and phrases that they learned growing up.
