Slurs in Somnum were words or phrases used to mark groups with contempt, reducing them to insults that carried the weight of prejudice or dismissal. They were shaped by rivalry, fear, or cultural bias, and often drew on stereotypes that turned difference into derision. Some slurs were casual epithets traded in taverns, marketplaces, or even among friends, while others excluded their target or provoked conflict. Over time, certain terms gained force not from their literal meaning but from the history of derision behind them.
