About Old Gottikan
Gottikan is the language of Gottika, one of the leading nations of the new Terra, rising from the ashes of Old Terra after unknown millennia. With the help of the Illuminators- scientists who never forgot the old ways- and the stalwart knights who fight for Gottika, the nation opposes Legion almost alone.
It is mostly a priori, although I would like it to suggest French or German very subtly. It also has a more extensive case system than any language I've previously worked on.
