Agreed.

Firespeech also appears to have been dropped in the list of languages in the Glorantha Book. Now maybe there is a "sacred language" used by the Yelmalions of Sun County based on a garbled version of Second Age Dara Happa called "Firespeech", but if there is, it is a very localized ritual language.
Another thing worth keeping in mind - in RQ2/3 literacy appeared much more common than it actually is.

I don't think it has. It made an appearance in the Glorantha Book and may have been the original language of the Vingkotlings during the Storm Age.
