vampire language — update i
this post is part of a project to analyse and expand the vampire language from the witcher; many of the definitions listed (including for words marked with a ☆ which come from canon) are either my own inventions or my own hypothetical, fallible interpretations

I watched blood Ori.gin so you didn't have to...wow they really gutted the actual framework and history of the verse. Stayed around for the Conju.nction...
