Alphabet

The information gathered from documents retrieved in The Great Invasion, Yell'a'Beard trip to Outlands and the documents and contracts Lionel had been translated with Kinoblin aid when they traded, which he managed to secure. They have taught us that they don’t have uppercase letters and, oddly enough, do not have math signs, so they adopted ours. So we think this is a full representation of their alphabet.

As you might notice, the numbers shown here resemble ours as well, so we think they adopted this’short form’ of amount writing as they have merely written the pronounced values prior to trading with The Realm.
