Palkha (BARK-uh; Rhythoed: Barca /ˈpaɾkʰə/, Barcan: Paḷkha /paɭkʰa/, Roshterian: Qaanuuṯu) is a predominantly Rhythoed-speaking Eta-Talman country. It is located near Verse:Tricin/Qaaroshter.
Geography
Its capital is Răthamrona (Ḷdamrōṇa in the native Paḷkhan language).
Wildlife
Barca has distinct wildlife though not as distinct as Cualuav.
Music
Inspiration: Carnatic music, gayageum sanjo
The quintessential Palkhan musical instruments are the tsaltho (chaḷdō in Palkhan), very similar to the cello, and the Palkhan drum (pātre).
Palkhan music is based on a fusion of native styles and Lakovic ones. Native Palkhan music tends to be richly ornamented, and is based on a unique scale consisting of 25 "tones", some of which are defined as vibratos with fixed endpoints.
Some ornaments include:
- grace notes
- rapid trills and turns
- slides
- pronouncing retroflex consonants in lyrics so that the tongue slaps the floor of the mouth, producing a percussive effect
