About Soptenese
Soptenese is the primary language spoken in Soptemia. It is a Ryamaian language in the Masic branch. It is one of the most unique Ryamaian languages, as it is relatively isolated from most others. As a result, Soptenese has many features uncommon to Ryamaian languages, such as its own variation on the Vaniuan script, which is monocamarel.
