About Khish
A language spoken by the Nhilhoolkhish people, who lived mainly in the Arctic Circle, but traveled to other places quite frequently. The Khish language was recorded on their boats, in the form of inscriptions in runes. Their unusual base-16 system has led some to believe that they are actually robots that look like humans, but there is barely any evidence to prove that this is true.
