The Secret Language of the Forest Moles

Check out Matthew Neagley's recent Gnome Stew post, The Secret Language of the Forest Moles, for a helpful reminder of how language can add a sense of wonder and mystery to your game. I particularly like the idea of a language that is secretly an alien virus. Perhaps the language overwrites your ability to speak certain words. Perhaps it is painful to speak. Or maybe speaking it slowly transforms you physically into another species.
