The lands surrounding our Flavor Rank are yet to see the light of Christ and abandon their erroneous ways. The role of missionary work is crucial for their conversion, yet it remains a challenge due to existing language barriers. One dedicated missionary, Stephen Of Perm, originally hailing from distant western lands but now residing in Perm, has embarked on a courageous mission to bring the teachings of Christianity to these unconverted souls. To aid him in this endeavor, he has begun the daunting task of creating a new language, based on the East Slavic alphabet and encompassing both Cyrillic and non-Cyrillic characters. If completed, it could be used to translate religious works into a language more accessible to those who have yet to embrace the faith.

2913historical_info = flavor_mos.29.historical_infoThe Permian Script was developed by Stephen of Perm once he had learned the language and traditions of the Komi, an indigenous ethnic group that inhabited the outlying eastern territories of Muscovy. He worked out a distinct writing system for their use to facilitate the conversion to Christianity, and in the process ended up creating one of the oldest scripts for a Uralic language, which saw him appointed the first bishop of Perm.
