I see phonemically your retroflexes fill the "ch/j/sh/zh" position in common
phonologies, like Mandarin. I like that, since they distinguish themselves
further from "ts/dz/s/" more than the more common postalveolar. And I was really
impressed with Tirelat script! I can tell you've been developing your conlangs
(and music and art) quite a while, and have your own type of Middle Earth
conworld. A mix of fantasy and sci-fi....
