On the Fame of Whisperers
On the Fame of Whisperers
Though it is difficult to determine how the fantasies about artifacts and Whisperers flourished, something must have indeed happened, as there was clearly a period of stabilization in the history of ancient peoples. Whatever the myths referred to as Horrors – be they natural disasters, wild beasts, or chieftains of great, long-forgotten tribes – ceased their attacks.
The ancient legends attribute this to the Whisperers, who spread throughout the world wielding Dolya-given artifacts after taking an oath that they would never act to harm the balance of the world.
All Whisperers were honored and glorified in song. Some of them can even still be heard today, though their lyrics have been changed in the face of further strange events.
