Kankoan Infernal (Κανκοαv)
Language of Native Kankou
The language of the Native Kankoans of the Sovereign State of Kankou is one known to most as a form of Infernal; the language of the nine hells and the kin of such– archdevils, tieflings, etc. In the case of Kankoan Infernal it is the same, but specific to the region of Kankou and it's native tiefling population. The language has a very specific ring, history, and dialect to it that makes it considerable as it's own language– this, as well as a unique script appearing to be somewhat more uniform and less primal a scrawl from most infernal script. Kankoan Infernal is known to locals as "Κανκοαv" or simply "Kankoan". It is a very musical sounding language with a certain fluidity to it that makes it smooth and generally pleasant to the ear.
