episode 4, page 13

 

TRANSCRIPT:
panel 1: Hana talks to himself as he writes: "riochdair ...ás deidhan ro-rádh...riochdair" (pronoun... after... request...) Tera leans over, gawking at the tablet. Kiigari glares at her and leans away.
panel 2: Tera asks (off-screen): "That's... The old language, isn't it?" Hana looks up, surprised. He looks away, embarrassed. Hana: "Ah, yeah. It's just easier to take notes that way..." He points to his brain. Hana: "Then I don't have to translate it back and forth, you know?"
panel 3: Tera looks at him with a raised eyebrow. Tera: "So, that's your... first language? It hasn't been spoken conversationally in centuries!"
panel 4: Hana looks away awkwardly. Hana: "Well, I learned it... From how information was stored under the mountain."
panel 5: Hana continues (off-screen): "But I've worked really hard to speak your language right and sound normal!" Tera mostly ignores this, talking to herself. Tera: "Ahh, yes. That makes sense." She points to Hana's tablet. Tera: "So, is this some of the 'old tech' from under the mountain?"

  1. Is the “Old Language” some form of Gaelic, or just inspired by it?
