Btw, reason the word balloons went from the usual to having an inner ring is because switched from whatever language they were speaking to Dwarvish. So any word balloon with an inner ring is in the Dwarf language not whatever language Shin and Ema were using. Shin learned Dwarvish over the centuries while MC learned it from the language spell goddess tried to overload his mind with. Her idea was to overtax his mind by giving him every language but human (so wouldn't be able to talk to humans if somehow survives,) in the hopes it would hasten his death either directly from burning his mind out from too much information or indirectly by making him unable to move well, defend himself, or gather enough food and water due to pain.
