I don't know which if any of those two categories I'd put first. Recently
I've been taking words mainly from non-Indo-European languages, but there
are quite a few words of Indo-European origin in Eklektu that Ludireo is
likely to inherit.
I think the artistic category is the right place, but none of the
_sub_categories really seem to fit. It's not science fiction, fantasy,
historical, or a naming language.
