The Thekashi cultures were created to explore religious, philosophical, and
social ideas. The Thekashi are an amalgamation of several originally
distinct peoples, the most ancient being the Iltâr. Iltârer is their
language; it is metaphorical, inventive, and sophisticated in its treatment
of concepts of consciousness, spirit, and transcendental identity.
