"Well, it's not any language I know." Vandurai said to Luka, "I speak a little Ourasi but not much."

Note: The time period is the early Renaissance, there are limited firearms, and the most advanced kingdom is Dragosen, the lower right kingdom on the map.

Divine intervention time! 

Spoiler

I will likely do this from time to time for the sake of storytelling and explaining events that wouldn't normally make sense.

@Thee insane Talinel can now speak and write perfectly in Draconic!

"What does it say?" Vandurai asks mostly to herself. 

Talinel can understand what she's saying.

Heh? Ok so.... where's draconic from. Cause i was gonna have her be from another planet and she somehow got teleported here and so she's studying their language and culture cause she's a scholar.

Draconic is the language of dragons but is decently common due to the dragon kingdom being the largest (bottom right on the map).

Vandurai also speaks draconic, it's her first language.

If you refer to my first post you will see that most of the worldbuilding is using elements from D&D, this is one of those instances

Sure! Draconic is only one of several languages and you still don't know the culture, I just think being able to communicate will make everything run smoother.

Ahh well, whats done is done.
