Silachian is a mixture of elvish and Auvergian.
Auvergnian, interchangeably known as Auvergnat by those who are fluent in it, is a well known Human language. The dialect is famous throughout the various realms of Oren and Aeldin for being crowned as the "Language of Love". Auvergnian is a soft, melodic, and yet arguably very complex dialect.
Typically, humans from Oren that speak Auvergnian descend from ancestors that once lived in lands such as Lotharingia or Savoy, contemporarily of the Campagnois culture. While Auvergnian-speaking Aeldinic humans usually hail from the Kingdom of Banardia.
Auvergnian is the same as real-life French.
Elvish This language, known as Ancient Elven, was developed by the children of Malin after their establishment in Aegis, and was used widely in the ancient world. It fell out of favour after a cataclysm of warfare caused the deaths of most who knew it, though the tongue remained and was later revived by the efforts of a small group of High Elves. Further efforts have been made to return the language to the fore, and old scrolls are often used to discover new phrases and words.
It should be noted that the Elves possess several other language systems beyond Ancient Elvish, which include the exceptionally rare language of the Mori'Quessir, sometimes known as 'Drow'. Another is spoken by adherents of the fallen Princedom of Malinor and is known as Old Almenorean, though this has largely died out.
