Lior is the language derived from a cult code, springing from the cult which was the origins of the Shur'Talon. Over the ages since the following was uplifted, it has developed into an actual language, named after their god, Liorgon.
[edit] Names
Shur'Talon are named by their parents, in a ritual shortly after birth devoting the Shur'Talon to Liorgon.
