The Grisean language is a Hardan language spoken in the [[Grisean-Thirranic Commonwealth]]. It is distantly related to the other languages in the Hardan language family (like Darrsian and Bjéri), but due to the isolation its speakers had over time as large mountain ranges cut it off from the rest of the island. Grisean is descended from the Aranki language, a now extinct language that was historically spoken across Northern Harda. Aranki is seen as the direct ancestor of modern Grisean and is the link between Grisean and the Proto-Hardan language. It is written in the [[Romantian|Romantian script]] and was formerly written in the Grisean Script. The Grisean Script is only used in religious or traditional ceremonies and is not often seen on standard signage, public storefronts, or buildings. Aside from churches, you can find it on government buildings such as the parliament building in Aľatyn, where the name is labelled in both the Romantian Grisean and Native Grisean scripts.
