Hey Zelda Fans — Those Squiggles Written All Over Everything in Skyward Sword Have Been Translated

How do you know a science fiction or fantasy series is really worth its salt? When it creates its own spoken or written language of course — that shows the makers aren’t just lazily tossing aliens and elves around, they really put some thought into this sh-t.
