Roccoa

Roccoa is spoken by the inhabitants of Dor Roc on Shade. "Roccoa" literally means "concerning someone from [Dor] Roc" and by extension is understood to mean "to do with rocca" ("rocca" itself properly referring to the continent, not a species, but used as a species name by everyone else).

Our understanding of its vocabulary is tragically coloured by the usage of the most talkative rocca encountered, one Laffent Ferrl.
