Kæzhyn is a Western Azraic language spoken in Northeast Borea, primarily in Kæra'zna and Syrtænzna. It is the sole spoken and written language in Kæra'zna outside of diplomatic service and the primary spoken language of the Az'ra population in Syrtænzna, centred around the Presidency of Za'lyr'zna. Around 2 million speak it as a first language, though due to a lack of invested resources and support for the language outside of Kæra'zna, the amount of speakers of Kæzhyn as a second language are considered negligible.
