Yes. Mind you, pretty much everything in the West is written in such a
language. The Abiding Script is their standard alphabet, and Malkioni
don't generally write in the vernacular.

They'd claim there isn't any difference. I don't think the Arolanit
Brithini in particular have changed noticeably since the Grey Age. This
is part of what's so scary about them (especially, one assumes, if you
