Hi, Pablo—thanks for the suggestions. I was not able to get them to work.
Here is my test file.

\definefallbackfamily[mainface][sans][NewGardiner][range=131FC,132F9]
%\definefallbackfamily[mainface][sans][NewGardiner-Medium][range=131FC,132F9]

\definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Brill]

\setupbodyfont[mainface,18pt]


\starttext

Hello world! 1234

αβγ

{
𓇼𓋹
}

and that is all.

\stoptext
