Terce/Periont's script
Periont was one of the names given to a traveler from the Southern Land who learned the art of writing in Sindie and made use of a modified form of their script to write his own language. The memoir of his travel from the Southern Land to Aptat Tol, written in the 4th century BCE, is the primary example of this script. The script is sometimes called the Southern script, though this is a misnomer as it was never known or used in the Southern Land.
It is an abugida with geometric letterforms. The inherent vowel is /a/.
