Fa'er
Fa'er is the alphabet that is used to write Bagura and other languages in the Centralized Mountain States of Snefaldia. Fa'er is phonetic. A few sounds are indicated by ligatures (e.g. th in that = d+h, th in thin = t+h, s in pleasure = z+h, sh = s+h). The shapes of some of the letters are very similar to Elvish lettering, which indicates some level of diffusion in Snefaldia's past.
Development
The fa'er script came into use with the arrival of Khsayatha and the advent of Aatem Nal. The exact date of it's development is not known, but the Aatem Nal movement pushed it into use along with Bagura. The Amershaman Medrahov used the earliest fa'er scripts, and all Aatem Nal official documents were written in fa'er. Although the script did not displace the other methods of writing already president in Snefaldia- Dayan cuneiform, Allashan hieroglyphics, etc- it quickly became the most important and widely used script in Snefaldia.
Over the 700 years since the advent of Aatem Nal, the fa'er script has developed and evolved into its modern form. In the late 1700s, when Latin and Greek were introduced into Snefaldia as scholarly languages, and latin alphabets became known, a movement to use fa'er to write foreign languages developed, and in the modern day all foreign languages are written with this modern form of fa'er.
