Mahalian

Though it is mostly a dead language, scholars and linguists continue to study Mahalian in order to understand the lost continent's culture and and to learn about and study the basis of the Ufiri language that evolved from Mahalian. However, it is even less studied that the Cirae Civilization's language, something with no linguistic descendants, and the only known living person fluent in Mahalian is a Ufrian linguist by the name of Hayi Thadril. Very few texts from Mahali survive and most of them exist in the Camnhir College. Hayi Thadril does keep a handful at their home in Eversun.

Geographical Distribution

Originated in the ancient land of Mahali, and mostly only survived to the small country of Atika in the east of Aralyon. Survived for a short time in the far west in Eversun before evolving.
