The Aebasan tongues are spoken primarily in western Gallorea and the island of Dresta that is usually associated with Aurea. Aebasan itself has been used as a trade language in western Gallorea for centuries.
Aebasan
Though primarily spoken in Aebasa and Pthokos, Aebasan is spoken as a secondary trade language throughout western Gallorea and beyond. Though rare in Duria, even traders in southern Aurea tend to have enough knowledge of the language to conduct business.
Espirian
Spoken primarily in Daciara, Eeridia and Narisia, Espirian is a descendant of Aebasan uncommon outside these three cultures.
Neptaran
A distant cousin to Old Aebasan, Neptaran has developed independently of Aebasan for over two millennia. Spoken primarily by the citizens of the Freecity of Neptaris, the language has become a trade language of southern Duria in the last two centuries, replacing Zetian as the common trade language.
Old Aebasan (Extinct)
Spoken in the distant past, the language remains in written form only in extremely old ruins and fragments. Modern scholars have been unable to translate the language, though it is believed to have been the progenitor not only to modern Aebasan, but to Abarisian, the language of the mages of Abaris.
