Xuthos

The ancient language of Sthygexa's children. Xuthos is a complex and scholarly language, having come from the mind of The Riddle of All Things. It lends itself well to the creation of riddles, koans, and puzzles, but also finds use alongside Thulaic in any field that requires descriptions of exacting specificity. Written Xuthos is made up of an alphabet of twenty-four letters which are easily transposed into modern Eolian.
