Aetherian, also called Ancient Etherian, is the original language spoken in Etheria. It began to fall out of use in the Second Age, and by the time most of The Somadàrsath takes place, it is used only for ceremonies and magic. Below you can see the glyphs of the language.

The trailer for The Mirror of Dùmsaro features an Aetherian poem, which offers an example of the language in action, albeit in poetic style, which can be syntactically looser than standard prose.

Now come the days of the shadows of old When the dead shall tread over our great land And the curse of the ages comes back to the fore And the time of the reckoning comes to hand. Here shall they march, Rush to the memories, |
