About Femsheizung
An odd amalgamated language spoken by a group of fae called Gexeitë-sagatenn - the storytellers. The language is, in all but the most informal contexts, sung rather than spoken, and the manner of singing tends to indicate a register of formality.
Technically, the language is written with a mirrored latin-based alphabet, from right to left, with non-liturgical cantillations that may indicate the melody sung, but those aren't implemented here yet.
