About Werrfeilen
Werrfeilen is a fictional language speculating a somewhat seclusive Finnic-speaking population who migrated into a High German-dominated sprachbund some centuries prior. The sounds and orthography roughly parallel developments in High German varieties, with some independent developments.
Most native speakers are magic users capable of using their own bodily energy to heal organic life. Werrfeil /'vɛɐ̯vaɪ̯l/ (lit. "mountain hideout") is the name of a town that most speakers consider to be their cultural capital.
