Serathi Manuscript


I started sketching out what would become Serathi around 2004, though it wouldn't acquire that name until much later. Inspired, as usual, by Tolkien's Elvish languages, I wrote out a poem that sounded good, with the intent to decide what the words meant later:

Nuthal gwethnin lagas maldor,
Malas brethden silethal andor.
Giveth naldo lithen lath,
Naldo ragath ladunath.

The images below are scans of my early notes on the language, which early on only bore the name "/th/ language." I cannot be precisely sure of the exact order of composition, except of course that the page with the poem was the first.
