Fhasen

Fhasen is a language centered in Northern Levantia, spread across the north of the continent with numerous exclaves across the world, from Southern Levantia to Crona. Its primary association is with the Fhainnin gaelic subgroup and the nation of Faneria, which uses it as an official language, although its use is widespread within the immediate surrounds of the country. It is the only extant language of the Dethaic branch within the Celtic language group.

Fhasen makes use of numerous artificial conventions created by fiat
