ON LANGUAGE.

While the language Ash speaks is nominally a conglang, it's only constructed in terms of outlines, rather than vocabulary. This is because I wanted to make the language as complex as a real, organic language, and I don't think constructed languages are capable of that level of complexity (or if they are, I'm not the person to do it). As such, while some vocabulary has been standardized, it's only when absolutely necessity, for internal consistency.

The rest is in comments.
