History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

A region of extensive early Aslan colonial expansion in the early years of the Long Night, the location of the Aslan homeworld, Kusyu (historically transliterated into Rim-Anglic as "Kuzu" by Solomani explorers) has often been misidentified on some old Terran starcharts as located within this subsector of the Dark Nebula Sector, the subsector even sometimes being mistakenly labelled as Kilane Subsector on those charts. It is possible that an important Aslan colony of the Long Night in this region was thought to be the homeworld of the race by Old Earth Union Terrans when in fact it may have merely been the center of a significant clan holding of the time.[1]

Languages[edit]

  • Anglic: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium and an official language of the Solomani Confederation.
    • Various secondary languages of Terran origin can be heard on Solomani worlds.
  • Aslanic: A patois of the Aslan's dominant language of Trokh, utilising Trokh grammar and morphology but with phonology more suited to Human vocalisation. Commonly used by Human societies that have long had contact and exchange with Aslan, noticeably those aided and uplifted by Aslan during the Long Night.
  • Osmani: A distant descendent of ancient Terran Turkish, with a large number of loanwords from Vilani and Trokh.
  • Thirmone: The ponderous, dominant language of the Ormine; as such, the primary language in the Gerontocracy of Ormine, their interstellar nation (immediately to spinward of Yataw)
  • Trokh: The common language of Aslan who conform to the modern Aslan monoculture established after the Aslan Cultural Purge.
