There is a lack of the word ancestor in elven, and it's a word that is very very commonly tossed around and used in darkie land. I;d like to use the language in rp, but it's very much catered to high elven culture, havin special words a references to high elven cultural aspects, (mainly because they're the only ones using it on mass). Such as gold being viewed as evil, ect. I'd like to use some elven, sparingly for simple flavor, but I lack a few words that are a frequent darkie vocabulary words.
The additions of words with these meanings. Feel free to add some if you can think of any
Ancestor
Ancestral Spirit (Perhaps an honorific version of the word for Ancestors)
Spirit
The dark elven sense of honor, which is drastically different than that of other elves. Sirame, a connection with the forest, also means honor: however, I feel like this would be better suit with wood elves than dark elves. In fact, I encourage wood elves to use this "connection with the forest" and "honor" for their own lore making. Darkies however do not dirive honor from spirits, it's family(and thus the family's ancestors) Perhaps: Sir[Ancestor word] equals the dark elven interpretation of honor.
I'd like the word for ancestor to be short and simple and hard consonated(In fact I'd prefer if all of these words were hard consonated as they're more darkie leaning). So Instead of vanayla one could easily say without much difficulty ito[Word for ancestor], meaning go with the ancestors.
Here is a little roleplay scenario for the discovery of the words, if needed
The call to retrieve the relics of the past, a relic of the ancestors, is a sworn virtue of the archons, an oath given to the ancestors. Little is known among the archons about the ancient mali'ker, yet they know of one location in which the ancients had once laid their hands upon, a place in which relics were already found, and some clues learned They travel to the ruins, a regular trip, carrying both spear and shovel.
They arrive at the site, a place they've frequently returned to, and began desperately searching for any knowledge, clues of the past. They now dig down, breaking the soil. In time they find a stone tablet, a tablet which honors those fallen. It is in both common and elven, allowing for the new words to be deciphered and added to the collective knowledge of the ancient language.
((Connor knows of the site referenced, I've nagged at him about it for a long time.))
