More commonly just Verát, this was the language spoken by the southern dōras, most famously, those who's clans entered into the Great Pact at Terek. This is the langauge spoken by Undun and his compatriots, as opposed to the slightly younger and only slightly changed High or Terek Verat which appears during the First Kingdom. Genetically, Verát is an old Indo-European language, an early branching-off, indicated by some archaic and otherwise unsusual features. It shares many traits with the Indo-Iranian languages in particular, but is clearly not a member of that family.
It was clearly in the south and east, especially at Terek, as presumably as far north as Kuban. The early First Kingdom scholar Rōtálkos eksa Kherosko mentions that the territory of Leşpeli-vega extended only as far north as Kuban, that being the last of the original seven clans to enter the Pact.
