About Oscurolian
Used for my novels. It's the native language by most of the characters and spoken by most of them. It also serves as lingua franca in the universe. It comes from a brutal barbaric people, and after being influenced by many languages and cultures, king Suthrak II the Great started to standarize the language and culture of the oscurolians. His work evolved into the language and honest people of today. However, war and fighting is still important on oscurolian.
