In the real world, Hantic is an a prior artlang. In its conworld, however, it is an ancient dead language that has something like the status that Sanksrit or ancient Greek have for Western culture in the real world. Its use is mainly limited to religious or magical ritual and stage works, both spoken and musical. New stage works are written in the language, so it does have a partially living tradition.
