Tengo Language

Tengo (Salequth) is a language spoken in northwest Auslon. It had one hundred fifty thousand native speakers by the end of the First Age. By the close of the fifth century of the Third Age, it had nearly gone extinct under Zalvotian rule. Along with Kakugo, it was considered one of the more conservative languages of the Saigosō language family.
