The interest in the language has been on the increase in the last few years and time will tell if the League can keep that interest alive. In any case it is a way to preserve an important part of the culture and history of Somery. A variant of Estron is spoken in Cimera. Estron is related to, but not mutually intelligible with, Fyldish.
