Ursine, also known as Furbolg, is the language of the furbolgs.[1] It is made up of sigils and slashes rather than proper letters.[2] The Stillpine furbolg have their own unique dialect of furbolg, which uses a special symbol matrix, which is understood through symbology. The written language is made up of various primal markings and etchings, which include owls, bears, wolves and stags.[3]
