These days, most of the citizens there at least can hold a simple conversation in the language, but the exact amount of speakers there are unknown. Likewise, when Sion joined Saxony shortly after, a few speakers arose in Sion- but the numbers are most likely low, and the language is taught academically and is not used as a common language. But the influence on the German dialects in those parts are drastic, especially with maritime vocabulary. | ||
The language didn't spread well through the Saxonic Empire, and only a few speakers were gained- usually those who wanted to read Shrekist texts. | |||

I met a traveller, from an antique land, who said: "two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert... Near them, on the sand, half sunk a visage lies, whose frown, and wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, tell that it's sculptor well those passions read- which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things. The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Ozymandias, king of kings. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains.
