Last night I finished the language rules & root words/combos for my Aerylian ancient language in #theRiveHunter world, being the primeval kind. For example: Enerthya, the name of the continent, comes from the Aeryl name 'En'Arthyl', meaning Our World.

Now working on some studies of #glyphs and #magic #symbols.

“It's been three centuries since we saw the last Riveners, but their return is nigh. A powerful kind, bound to the Rive, able to wield the dark power with their own hands. Able to burn everything in their path, and summon demons at their will." — initial concept sketch of the Riveners #theRiveHunter

5K words written today, and still going, for all major historical events leading to the start of my story. Having a clear chronological timeline helps be justify so many ideas and situations in my world's current state. Knowing where I'm coming from helps me decide where I'm going.

“The flying insects emerged ghostlike from their nocturnal sleep with every evenfall, illuminating the streets with their blue glowing bodies. Nightfly lanterns swung from iron chains above doors and windows. Hollow objects that carried small pots of stargrass, enough to attract the buzzing insects into a spinning pattern, like a blue, glowing sphere."

─ The Nightflies
(excerpt from the #theRiveHunter series)

Any fellow worldbuilders out there who wish to connect?!

I love #worldbuilding ! I've always put a lot of effort into my worlds that I base my stories in. Love building high fantasy settings, making my own maps, creating cultures and religions, coming up with names and history, and also detailed magic systems. Though I strive to balance it all with the actual writing of my stories!

*stares balefully at search engines* close, but that's not what I asked

#amworldbuilding #amwriting

Mastopeeps, does anyone have a working knowledge of mountain formation and plate tectonics (particularly with relation to the Himalaya) and would be willing to let me pick their brains with some #wordbuilding questions.
