Description
To the south of Sevraeja is the land of Rukania, or Oruz or Roriz in ancient times. Its writing is an alphabet that is similar to the alphabet used in Bujan: in fact, it and Sevraejan are distant relatives of Bujanski, like how English is somewhat related to Norwegian and Dutch.It is a kingdom of knights and castles, priding itself in its millennia of intricate traditions. Compared to Bujanski writing, Rukanian letters look more curled and curved, better for calligraphy and elaborate manuscripts.
Movja Rukansij - Rukanian language
Slava Daiboru - Praise be to Dazhbog (the sun god, national god of Rukania)
Slava Rukaniji - Glory to Rukania
Slava Volosti - Long Live the King (Rukania is a very old monarchy)
Volostj - the King, a King
Sič - castle
Valja - free will (the Valjads are Sevraejans who stayed behind in the north. Originally border guards and retainers, they formed their own knight clans in their white castles, something like Cossacks but more medieval)
Vetlenj - a knight
Spezorib - jousting (the national sport)
