my unfinished writeup on that topic:
# Language Writing Forms
## Iruaric and Althan
* Reference -- the vorloi language is erlini, script is runic,
thought by the althans (why design something totally new?)
* Speculation -- since the Althan had a galaxy spanning technological empire,
thier basic script was probably drive by simplification and technological
limitations at first suggesting some form of true alphabet -- runic or latin ?
* Speculation -- since mastering psionic and magickal sciences as well as
some form of mind-machine interface, iruaric variant of althan suggest a
logographic design (probably syllabic).
## vorloi
* Reference -- the vorloi language is erlini derived, script is runic
* Speculation -- thought by the althans, why design something totally new ?
* Speculation -- similar complexity/flexibility than erlini script ?
## Erlini and variants (eg. Muri-Elven)
* Reference -- muri-elven similarity to erlini
* Reference -- all muri-elven dialects share the same script or variants thereof.
* Speculation -- cultural influences suggest that erlini script is flexible
or complex enough to be used by several cultures and languages as a base of
their script (like latin, cyrillic, hanzi, hangul)
* Speculation -- is it derived from the elven core script ?
## Enris-Sokal
* Reference -- from elven society used for scholarly purposes
* Speculation -- is it derived from the elven core script ?
* Speculation -- is it distant enough from elven core that a lineari reader
can not make sense out of it ?
## Old Emerian
* Reference -- actually the language of the Taranians.
* Speculation -- as simple as basic english, as complex as full english ?
* Speculation -- similarity to indian/british/australian/us-english variations ?
