Medibgóëse Language

Thought to be descended from the Jaggudorn Languages of the Sky People, possibly old Colnorian, and eastern Pytharnian languages of the Moigthe. Medibgóëse remains an important international language since the Psychic Crusades, especially for diplomats, aristocrats, and academia. It is also closely related to the Gonfalese Language. It is more distantly related to Parkyon Language and to the Pytharnian Language.
