What are the Urth's writing systems?

Are they alphabets? Ideaographs? How many languages share writing systems?

Thoughts?

I'd note that writing systems are pretty good at spreading, and that all surviving alphabets derive from Proto-Sinaitic (which itself was derived from Egyptian hieroglyphics), and passed down through Phoenician hands.

But there are non-phonetic writing systems, like Chinese, and the Kingdom of Lithmore is much more of a confluence of civilizations than most parts of the Earth.

in the library there's a book on the Lithmorran alphabet and it's just the latin alphabet!
