Analectics

Corvana's Analectics collects the songs of the Vanrial, an order of artists who live on the slopes of the Silent Mount in Jah Keved. The Vanrial have sung the same words year after year for centuries, holding that the Heralds themselves composed them in the Dawnchant. The words survive in an ancient script. Their meaning does not. What the Vanrial sing now are sounds, kept faithfully and no longer understood by anyone singing them. Scholars who work on the volume have long argued that both the script and the songs are genuine Dawnchant, which would make the Analectics one of the few doors left into a language nobody living can read.
