Chapter: The Romantic Period
Location: England
Robert Burns wrote the most Scottish things ever. These poems sound like Middle English but were written in 1786.
Also, another reminder: Phoenix Comicon. May 23 to 26. Table 1739. BE THERE.

Well, Scots do have some heavy Norse influences in their language (and/or heritage), so it’s no big surprise I guess.
As do the English, but there’s some differences in time and social classes influenced by them, to say nothing of the Normandy-Norse connection.
So in short, English is a pretty messed up language.
Also holy crap Burns’s writing is awesome. That may partly be Brave speaking, though.
Also: I CAN NOT BE AT COMICON! I have work (for now), and I don’t even live on the same continent. :p
… It sounds like Molly’s insulting Nicholle to her face and getting away with it. ^^;
