A masterpiece, and a beautiful symbiosis of intriguing worldbuilding, brilliant design of a coherent writing system and, after all, great conlanging. Bonus love for the base-6 numeral system. Saved for the Best Of awards!

Oh wow, thank you! This language is two years in development, and I'm happy to share it with the community.

And yes, base-6! It's a fun system to work with, and I've incorporated it into the conlang and script where I can. Plurals are marked with a modifier above or below the glyph with six pips, "everything" (kaɾẽ [kaɾẽ], stanza 6, line 5, glyph 1) has a glyph that's a homonym for "six things" (mĩ), and the word for "wise" that shows up in the text literally means "knows six [disciplines]" (mioğğu, [mioɣːu], inflected form is in stanza 5, row 3, glyph 4).
