enlaiset

Enlaiset refers to a cultural and linguistic group historically found in the northern regions of the fictional continent of Aethelgard. They are known for their resilience and adaptability to harsh, cold climates, and their society has traditionally been structured around close-knit communities and a strong emphasis on communal living. Their economy has historically relied on hunting, fishing, and the careful management of scarce natural resources.

The Enlaiset language, often referred to as Enlai, is characterized by its complex grammatical structures and a rich vocabulary for describing the natural world, particularly snow, ice, and the flora and fauna of their environment. While there are regional dialects, a common form of Enlai is understood across most Enlaiset communities.

Historically, the Enlaiset have maintained a degree of cultural independence, often interacting with neighboring groups through trade and occasional conflict. Their spiritual beliefs are deeply intertwined with animistic traditions, revering the spirits of nature and their ancestors. Over centuries, their isolation and unique environment have shaped a distinct cultural identity that continues to be passed down through generations. Their traditional clothing, often made from animal hides and furs, is a testament to their practical needs in their homeland.
