Break Start - Language Test

I apologise to my fellow dA-ers who have probably already witnessed this horror…

Basically all I was doing was testing out my idea for representing different languages, since the next book will most likely feature all four of these. I just felt it unnatural that everyone would be speaking Cassian all the time, yanno. Got this idea while drawing out the scenes with Sofie & Tryg, since they'd probably mostly be speaking Nordragian….
So here we go!

Brown = "Yshtish" (Yeshta)
Red = "Sudragian" (Shahdra)
Green = "Nordragian" (Noorda)
White = "Cassian"

Yeah the entire first book was in Cassian, which I have now swapped the format for to a more conventional comic book speech look rather than the usual invert I use.

P.S. Yes these are their book 2 designs~
And if you're confused about what languages everyone speaks, the info centre is a good place to go~
