Norterran script

Norterran script (Volontéan [Norterran]: 𐐽кᎮᏈт Ꮏ ᘤг𐐮𐭅нヴ, romanized: Skripat du Norteranyo) is the alphabet of the ancient Neolian people that have historically inhabited the region of North Volonté, mainly in what is now Pioresná and Fréris. It is a syllabic alphabet that was at one point used for the now lost Neolian language. Today, it is still used as an alternative alphabet for the Volontéan language by many communities of Northern Volontéans, or Norterrans, who are decended from the ancient Neolians.

Due to how the alphabet is written and read, some elements of the Norterran dialect are different between the more common Northern and Southern Volontéan dialects. For example, the common Volontéan word "qué", which roughly translates to the Traveler's Tongue word "that", is written in the Norterran dialect as "𐐪л" (romanized: "kae") because the Norterran script doesn't have an equivalent for the Volontéan letter q. For a similar reason, common Volontéan words like "cela" ("this is") and "commencé" ("begin") are written in the Norterran dialect as "ォ𐐱" (romanized: "sela") and "ꖉבн𐐳л" (romanized: "komensae") because Norterran script lacks an equivelent for the Volontéan letter c.
