I do not consider any fantasy worldbuilding complete before you cannot tell me something about

the culture’s sense of humour, with examples of popular jokes,

popular literature VS classic literature,

what children learn in school (especially history, maths, biology),

the common grammar mistakes your conlang’s native speakers make,

the culture’s cuisine, with recipes,

toy production,

the embarassing old songs people sing when they are really drunk, but would not admit knowing while sober.

Upon Darker Sand // Favourite Families - The Falksten Sisters

   Home seemed like a magical place, after Karina died. A magical place to be visited only in dreams. A white light on the horizon, never quite attainable, where Laila still lived.     Two surviving sisters, and an ocean between them. Karina had promised that they would return one day, she and Dagmar. That they would sail the Dark Sea in the dead of night and return to the land where the spirits sang and the night lingered.    But Karina had always been a liar.
