Auroran (Auroran: Fearlainth nCeáil [ˈfʲarlanʲː‿ɡʲaːlʲ]; often simply called Ceáil [ˈkʲaːlʲ]) is a Kireno-Kantemoshan language spoken in the Aurora Islands where it is the second official language alongside Weranian.

Auroran was first brought to the Aurora Islands by Kireno-Kantemoshan settlers in the 700s CE where it began a gradual shift away from its continental counterparts. During the Marauder Age, the Aurora Islands were effectively conquered by Ghaillish marauders who also settled on the islands.

The South Thalassan languages
Ocher is Havonic; pink is Kākō-Hame

The Southern Thalassan Languages are a group of Multimarei languages spoken by the Multimarei people in Southern Thalassa in the Thalassan territories of Benau and the South Thalassan Circuits of the Five Provinces. Most Southern Thalassan languages are extinct or moribund with the four most prominent ones being: Hame, Havo, Koele and Kākō. They all currently use a modified Mitonese katakana syllabry as a writing system though the Laimiaic and Aroman alphabets have also been used to write the languages.
