Very busy IRL so here's some stuff from my free time.
Jorugendic Languages
Located somewhere around the vicinity of the Ural mountains lies a few long lost cousins of Aurun of the Finnic branch of the Uralic family. Collectively called the Jorugendic Languages, named after the largest language of the group, they are Finnic languages closely related to Aurun following similar developments but eventually split off sometime after the Late Proto-Aurun period or the Early Old-Aurun period*, whichever linguists prefer based on current evidence. The group consists of three major languages: (from descending order of speakers) Jorugendic, Vaatslamaan, and Argevinian which are all related to each other and are mutually intelligible by their speakers. These languages feature a ton of similarities to Aurun but are said to be a more "purified" version without the large Aruzhin influences after the native speakers migrated from the Aurun lands as depicted in their epic "The Journey Home" (JOR: Kotonaankottokaat, VAT: Ködyynkottoaat, ARV: Kotounaanskotkaa). The languages are used to study how early Aurun was like.

Did my first tiny little piece of conlanging in ages, introducing copular clitics in Inna.
Edit, added negative forms:
Copular clitics
Clauses may be composed of two noun phrases or a noun phrase and a predicative adjective or adjectival verb followed by a copular clitic. The copula agrees in person with the copula complement. An ephenthetic ə is inserted before the clitic if the word it attaches to ends in a consonant. The clitics distinguish between nominal and adjectival, as well as negative forms of both.
| nominal | adjectival | negative nominal | Negative adjectival |
1.p | -nii | -bii | -nəδii | -bəδii |
2.p | -dii | -sii | -dəδii | -səδii |
3.p human | -təə | -tii | -δəə | -δii |
3.p inhuman | -rəə | -tii | -ɣəə | -δii |
Unnə ɣubii - [1P sleep-COP.ADJ] - I am sleepy
Im əkatta kotətəə - [PC ERG-3P.HUM mother-COP.NOM] - They are mothers
Kədinə xamədəδii unnəδə - [ERG-2P friend-COP.NOM.NEG 1P-GEN] - you are not my friend
Kəxot pasoδii - [ERG-house yellow-COP.ADJ.NEG] - The house is not yellow

Yep; fortunately I managed to find a way to save it.

Sanktic languages are the name of three main languages spoken in the region known as Sanktia. Those languages are known as Alsanian, Corvian and Lettian; Alsanian further divides itself to two main dialects (Parkku and Lähjal). Even though those languages are grouped together in one, they are all very different and belong to different language families. Alsanian is a member of the Finnic languages, Corvian belongs to the Slavic family and Lettian is a Northern Germanic language.
Sanktia has been populated by various peoples in history, from Germans to Russians. Alsanian tribes, with the two biggest tribes known as Köphajäll and Saara, have settled around the Gulf of Finland around AD 95 and AD 104. It is known that Alsanians immigrated to the region from todays Northern Russia, previously inhabiting the parts of the Yamalo-Nenets, Krasnoyarsk and Sakha regions of the country, collectively known as "Pärnamaa". The tribes established the first cities around their region, including Taaruku, Naara and Aalto. Some of the historical duchies and kingdoms the Alsanians have established include the Principality of Rokku (175-973 AD), Kingdom of Sarva (978-1342 AD), Duchy of Samra (1375-1903 AD) and Kingdom of Alsania (1903 - 2022 AD). Currently, Alsanians have a total population of 20,113,450, 18,223,503 of them living in Alsania while 1,889,947 live abroad. Alsanians were often known as merchants and traders around the region and Alsanian-flagged watercraft have been associated with trade in the region for decades. Alsania's economic power from 15th to 19th centuries can be compared to of Venice and Genoa during their prime.
Corvians arrived around 1012 AD from Eastern Ukraine and Southwestern Russia to the shores of the Baltic Sea. Known as sackers and savages, Corvians often took on piracy and made fortune from plundering watercraft. Because of their hostile lifestyle, they were often marked as "undesirables" by many leaders, especially Alsanian aristocrats and merchants. Corvian pirates slowly died out during the 17th century. Corvians have formed various states, including the city states of Prastavaya (1012-1456 AD), Zhalavayalska (1012-1145 AD), Korkov (1345-1503 AD) and Lovodsk (1066-1501 AD) - kingdoms of Rasvet (1701-1920 AD), Vechina (1456-1503 AD) and Lyalyudi-Garchina (1742-1846 AD) - and the republics of Supovada (1773-1835 AD) and Corvia (1947-2022 AD). After leaving their pirate ways, Corvia became an important centre for Orthodox Christianity. Civil wars, conflicts and uprisings are common themes in Corvian history.
Lettians arrived the premises around the 1300 AD after settling with the Poles in the region. They were mostly known for being architects and blacksmiths, however, Lettians did not gain their independence up until 1830. They have lived under Polish, Russian and Alsanian rule prior to their first independent state, Kingdom of Rasmun. The Lettian economy has been under heavy Alsanian influence up until 1970s, when the nation diversified its trade partners. Modern Lettia was founded around 1950 after the German/Nazi invasion of the country.

So glad my reforms passed after the last time (a way to justify me not being lazy) worked
Sort of, but not quite… It looks like a cross between Italian and Catalan to me with the letter K and more frequent use of Z…
Why are we getting raided so much? It makes no sense! :P It’s sad we have to add a password, what if someone new who isn’t a raider wants to join!?!
Do we have plans for the zombie apocalypse?
