Just some information some may find boring ...But! ... Some won't!
In the story that I'm writing about a team of off-world misfits that are military test pilots, I have developed a new language for one of my main characters. Below is a list of characters within the story and the language that I am putting together as I write. I am enjoying the shenanigans as I write this adventurous tale and hope once it's finished the readers will love it as well.
