High Cøøvean is an obsolete accent. It was similar to the Transatlantic accent, in that it was a compromise between Fyxoomian and Skellan standard accents. It is the closest thing to a "posh" accent in the Skellan-speaking world; today it survives in classical singing and in pop culture, where it is mainly reserved for elevated sci-fi, historical fiction or fantasy characters such as gods, kings or superintelligent beings. | High Cøøvean is an obsolete accent.
