They're 'cases' and they're perfectly normal.  Most [all?] of the languages of
Europe had them originally (even English!) although many have since discarded
them.

As for conlangs, I know there's some around like that, as at least mine does:

   [Hadwan] [IPA]      [rough English]  [case]
    jímon  /'ZI.mUn/   'to a tree'      Accusative
    jimóz  /ZI.'mUdz/  'from a tree'    Ablative
    jimóso /ZI.'mU.SU/ 'of a tree'      Genitive
    jimaí  /ZI.'mAI/   'at a tree'      Locative

     *Muke!
