About Drakon
The language spoken by dragons. The Drakon, sometimes called Dragon, is the precursor language to Common/English, which it directly evolved into.
Drakon is a very condensed language with few words that have many meanings. This is owed to the solitary nature of dragons and their slight psychic abilities, which are used to guide a sentance's intent.
In modern times, Drakon takes a lot of loanwords back from English.
