How Aevra enters the Living Myth
The world may be large. The reader's burden remains small.
Aevra will remain larger in the storyworld than the vocabulary a reader is asked to remember. New words and fragments appear only when they carry history, relationship, or consequence. Their plain-English meaning travels with them.
Aevra is a fictional movement-centered reconstruction inside Academy mythology. It is not presented as a recovered language from the real world. New vocabulary is never published simply to make the lexicon look complete.
