Litun Hiwashazu (literally: The Language of our People) is a language developed by the people exiled on Hiwashazu planet. According to their legend, the Hiwashazu people arrose as the gods (Captors?) took then while still as children from their heavenly parents and brought them to the land, leaving them to survive alone. This event caused a mass death of many children, but some managed to survive to a mature age and started a primitive society. Later on, after a few hundred years, their society developed to the point of managing to create pieces of technology, and at this point they understood that all the "heaven charriots" and other objects left behind by the "gods" were purely technological artifacts.
Their language was mostly developed by themselves and little to no traces of their original language on Earth before their capture remains, which makes this language to have unique characteristics that are unparalleled to all the other languages spoken in its parent star system. Since media technology and educational systems developed pretty fast and organized, there are little variations concerning dialects, to the point of barely being recognized as a different dialect at all.
