When the Gardas discorvered and eventually settled Wysyr (the group of five islands upon which the present day Mills and Garrýl live(d)), about 1500 years ago, a new dialect of their language, Low Garrýlic "Garáltīd", emerged, spoken by the descendants of the settlers. This was the Garro-Milleic dialect, which eventually evolved into New Garrýlic, Millic, and a third currently unknown language. New Garrýlic had been constantly and rapidly changing and evolving for the past several centuries, making it significatly different from its predecessor, though still resemblant. Being that the entire population of speakers was confined to a single island, the changes in the language, when they occured, became widespread and accepted across the whole population, leading to some very stark constrasts

Being that the entire population of speakers was confined to a single island, the changes in the language, when they occured, became widespread and accepted across the whole population, leading to some very stark constrasts between the language from one generation of speakers to the next. Some of the features that New Garrýlic had developed are: a crude but somewhat exhaustive system of inflection; an abandonment of a standardized word order; several unprecedented sound changes, especially a dramatic expansion of the phonemic inventory.
