Erorain
Erorain is the language of the Elmetain and was spoken prominently by them back in the days of their glory. These days it is only spoken by the Valley Elm and sometimes by the Crystal and Wood Elm. There are many different versions as the language has changed over thousands of years due to outside influences and location changes.
The language was mostly used for poetry and celebration and divine speech.
The language comes from the Wizards of Narvay originally and they may occasionally speak it, though this language is a secret to most peoples, they do not understand it.
Below is a well known poem in Erorain.
El allanen.
Erlaid ond chan fer.
Ont i gelbreira.
Orain thar ferain.
Near the falling water,
Calm like your voice,
Under the fading leaves,
Two lovers we rejoice.
Erathin ald e glerana wain.
Rumaun feran thar.
Umd lelaira patad.
Etain arain feran thar.
As the moonlight shines,
We return to one another,
After such peril,
We know there’s no other.
Glaite far
Ald rechain anethoin
Eradh edan
Feno anan gwel
In my arms
As the owls sings
I see you glisten
I pledge you one thing
Femetaurdur a-auront
A-ifeno humont
Far atan el inerain arbela
Din inerain thar auraunt
Forever I can not be alone
Without you I shall wither
So here lies the gift of my love
So we shall always be together
