About Galnese
The Galnese language (gln. Gahlnarvag ['ga:l.nar.vag]) is mostly spoken in the Northern Burz Mountains by the dwarves of the Galnese Kingdom. Some shady characters who left the kingdom after the Clan wars also speak this language with a slightly less harsh accent. From a linguistic view is Galnese the only isolated language on the continent Nardur, which is probably because of the isolating environment in the Mountains, which reach up to 6000 metres.
