Summary
The idea for Mezhon is taken mainly from your classic Elder Futhark series of runic inscriptions; it was designed to be a simple way for dragons in the Chasm of Stars to leave behind messages carved into the runic "dragonstones" left behind as memorials on the planets and in the realms they visited. Currently, there's 38 runes for different consonants, vowels, digraphs, and other sounds within the Dragorean language, and they can be written individually or using the "Valozian method", which is more common — inspired by Korean hangul, the Valozian method presents Mezhon runes and messages in blocks of four, representing two runes/sounds/phonemes at a time to form the full word.
Blocks of four become blocks of four to form longer words or sentences, and because it's still fairly primitive, there's currently no way to differentiate between sentences or parts of speech, as I'm mostly testing it with basic Dragorean names and syllabic phrases, but I expdct that might change as it continues to evolve and I finalize more of what the Mezhon runes actually look like.
This document is mostly some of my crude, first-run trial tests of some prototype Mezhon runes and what names in the Valozian method might look like.
