Drak — Linguistic Degeneration Catatan lore · bagian 2 dari 2

The differences between these creatures are to be contextualized not as natural variance, but as the markings of a common gene pool, split apart into new and isolated strands carried by the tribes.

Said isolation, alongside constant interracial conflict and assumed increased rates of inbreeding, may explain the perceived cognitive and linguistic degeneration of the Drak.

Cultural and linguistic degeneration:

The Drak texts recovered from more recent layers of sediment — often dredged from coastal waters or shipwrecks — tend to exhibit simpler structures, reduced vocabulary, and degraded syntax when compared to earlier samples unearthed in local temples. This suggests a loss of linguistic complexity over time.

It appears that the trajectory of their societal evolution may have stagnated — or even regressed. Additionally, if I interpret correctly, it is to be assumed that they hold a grudge or a somewhat natural aversion to technological advancements and engineering. They perceive most modern human inventions as admissions of weakness rather than solutions. Further research is required.
