About Talloric
Talloric Chozo (tšozo'ṭāllon'k) was originally created by native 
Zebesian speakers to mimic the extinct 
Homeworld Chozo in an attempt to return to their spiritual roots. However, with lack of extensive documentation on Homeworld, Talloric fails to be as faithful of a recreation as intended, which shows in places like the complete lack of the complex tones that define Homeworld’s songlike sound.
