Recovered Text

The following is the remaining text of page 153 of A Beginners Compendium and Catalog of Terminology of the Grammarians, the only relatively intact work to be recovered from The University following what official reports refer to as "a synergistic glyph event" in one of the establishment's grammar research cells.

Legation - The joining of two known glyphs into a single character is known as legation while the resultant symbol is commonly called a legation. The effects of some legations are readily predicted e.g. certain light-related glyphs and directional glyphs. Other combinations are volatile or have completely unexpected results. A number of textors maintain that a more comprehensive theory of grammar as well as a truer understanding of the effects of the glyphs will provide a logical explanation for these.

Lenna - Commonly used as pack animals in mines of the northern polar taiga and valued for their horns' use as stylus material, lenna are among the oldest domesticated animal species on Cera. They represent the only lineage of an otherwise extinct order of horned rodents ranging from 45 to 70 kg in size. The horn material is extremely hard but sharpens easily making it ideal for carving in many media. There are unconfirmed claims that glyphs carved with lenna horn styli have higher efficacy than those car [PAGE TOO DAMAGED TO READ] ofile represents wisdom and loyalty when used in heraldic cont

Lerum - An ancient and likely mythical city-state, Lerum was the supposed first birthplace of grammar. According to a handful of early sources, the city was a prosperous port on the coast of the Ordini Sea. As the stories go, the city's scribes discovered the glyphs and grammar, rapidly progressing to a point surpassing even modern skill and knowledge. The scribes' hubris is said to have led to the development of an incredibly destructive glyph which destroyed the city, leaving what is now referred to as Lerum Bay. These stories lack credibility, however, as there is no evidence whatsoever of an advanced trading culture in the area at the time described. Additionally, no records prior to the glyphic age have ever been validated.

Lesh of Fth, The Textor - While many can claim the advancement of the grammar, only one woman can claim its creation: The Textor Lesh of Fth. Lesh was both the originator of the first glyph use and the title of "textor"—derived from the ancient word meaning "to weave"—which is bestowed upon the highe
