How did Commonthroat come to use color as part of the written part of the language and is it possible to read a passage if color is removed?
Color isn't linguistically meaningful. I colored the consonants differently to make them stand out, and because I like the aesthetic.
Yinrih do a lot of writing using their natural ink, which only comes in dark blue.
