Eriseci

The Eriseci alphabet was invented by Nova K. for a book they are hoping to write. Eriseci is used to write Erisa, the language spoken by the Ali'uni, a race of angels who inhabit the Earth in secrecy. The script is meant to look like the steeples and bell towers of the cathedrals where the Ali'uni are said to come to Earth from their realm.

Notable features

Type of writing system: alphabet
Direction of writing: left to right in horizontal lines.
Used to write: Erisa. Can also be used to write any language that uses the Latin alphabet, and could be easily adapted to contain accents and other non-Latin letters.
Written in a continuous line, there is no separation between the letters or the words.
To show separation between letters, a tedo, or dot, is placed above and below the final stem in alternating sequences. Therefore the first letter would have a dot above the final stem, the second, a dot below, the third, a dot above, and so on.
A space is indicated by placing a Le'ubido, or double dot, above and below the final stem of the last letter in the word.
The End/Beginning is used like a hyphen, if the line ends in the middle of a word, or if the sentence isn't finished, use the End punctuation, and then use the Beginning to start the new line.
