Article about "new" Conlang

I had honestly forgotten how much fun this mailing list is.
I had also forgotten exactly why I always sign off a few weeks after I
have (re-)joined. But I was soon reminded when e-mail started pouring in.
Day and night, without end.
Anyway, the primary reason that I joined this time is that I have written
a short article about a fictional conlang called The Ancient Tongue of the
Wise. The language in question (which may not even be a real conlang,
although it looks like one) originated with the computer game The Citadel
(third in the Lords of Midnights series) by Mike Singleton. There are only
some fragments of it that I have been able to find, but I tried to analyze
them as best I could.
The article is primarily written for fans of the computer games, but
before I present it to them, I would like to have some input from people
who are better at this than I am. So anyone who happens to be interested
and who has a little time to spare can currently take a look at it here:

This is only a temporary location, so please do NOT link to this page.
Any and all feedback is appreciated.

eight(!) new posts arrived only while writing this message)
