becka_suttonThis is the first of a series of posts in worldbuilding preperation for NaNoWriMo in November (assuming I don't change my mind about what I'm writing). The work is Tentatively titled "The Opal Mask" (and I don't often have a title to start with). I have a few ideas and characters but as yet no plot. I hope I'll find the plot in the Worldbuilding.
I'm going to need to outline two cultures in detail and a handful (their neighbours) in sketch and come up with three naming languages - the magical language and the languages of the two main cultures. These relate to the magical language in much the way Latin and Greek relate to Proto-Indo-European - nightmare, but at least they don't need to be fully defined. Of course this means that any names are subject to change.
I'm currently sorting out the details but will post the first actual entry this weekend.
