Bed and bath. Great places for inspiration.

Well, the Gaels came from the Egypt, descended from Noah's son Japhet, went
to Scythia, from there to Crete and Sicily, and conquered Spain, you know,
according to the Book of the Invasions of Ireland. :) It was from there
in Bregon's Tower that Ith saw Ireland and decided to set foot on her. And
Gaedel Glas invented Gaelic from the seventy two languages after the Fall of
Nimrod's Tower. Para.17.
From those languages, without corruption,
Gaedel extracted Gaelic.
Familiar to him, thanks to his learning,
were the families of the many languages.

So Celtic is already a conlang. Why don't we extract some more Celtic
languages? :)
