I say this without sarcasm: it's so dissappointing that occult mumbo jumbo
is just mumbo jumbo. It really takes the magic out of magic to learn that
Enochian is just an inept relex.
I don't think I have time to invent a ritual language, but I'd love to see
it happen. If it were my project, I'd start with an attempt to create a
euphonious, or at least exotic, phonology.
Has anybody already taken this project on?
