Helvaenic

The language of the Helcynngae Peninsula, Helvaenic is spoken almost exclusively in that far land and as a result from its centuries-long history of raiding and — in more recent times — trading has spread fairly broadly across eastern Akados. Wherever populations with strong Heldring ties exist, Helvaenic is likely to be spoken as a household language if not in daily dealings. From a wholly different etymological family then High Boros, some of that ancient language has nevertheless found its way into Helvaenic after millennia of (often hostile) contact between the two cultures. Of any existing languages, Helvaenic is most similar to the Nørsk language spoken in the Northlands, though that language appears to be a simpler more linguistically pure version.
