Though Whisperers’ lives were long and blessed with might, they still eventually returned to Mokosh’s embrace through death, and others worthy of Dolya’s secret teachings were born. But the goddess did not return to enlighten them, and with each generation, the once-miraculous whispers lost more power.

However, there was still one man who remembered the tales of the godly artifacts – how Daboh and Perun cut them from their divine bodies, how the Whisperers divided them among themselves for the good of humankind, and how they were eventually hidden throughout the world.

The man knew that only the artifacts had the power to tame Žmij, and he was ready to risk cursing his own soul to defeat the enemy.

Bohan was his name, and songs demanded that he should be remembered forever because he offered salvation to all troubled people.
