Heh heh heh... Boudewijn, this is really terrific! No wonder you're a gamer. I'm trying to do this sort of thing for a novel I'm writing about the confusing discovery of Teonaht and I understand the artful and compulsive play that extending the verisimilitude requires! Issytra is only one of my own scholars ... There is also Sendl Brykkabuo of the seventies and Araisai Jy from the seventeenth century who left us a largely moralizing and outraged commentary on stuff he dug up on the Teonim. LOL! Keep it up... Issytra will write you again, I'm sure! (Don't tell me you have the actual TEXTS by Gerbrandt Rolsh, for instance!) And I want to hear more about your interview. How did the public get wind of Denden? Are you that "out" about your conlanging? If so, this is very interesting, and I might want to remark on it in my own essay on the subject. Sally
