Mahlo-Slashrim is the language invented by the Mahlok to communicate with the Slashrim people, the lingua franca of the Helexith Empire. It is based on a combination of the old Mahlok tongue (now seldom used) and the language of the first Slashrim tribe the Mahlok conquered. Though it sounds guttural and barbaric, it is rigidly structured and logical, with a precise written character for every sound.
Due to its harsh sound, Mahlo-Slashrim curses (such as klagk, meaning excrement) are used by many species throughout the Refuge.
