At the very south of the Sphere, where the scorching deserts end, lies the land of humans—Kemmesa. The people here revere the dead and believe that after death, souls travel to the world of the dead, a place of eternal rest.

Whisper—an incorporeal spirit composed of mist and shadow—leads the way there. To the eyes of the deceased, he appears as a huge, shaggy monster with many bottomless eyes, lest the soul doubt the majesty of the moment.

But even strict rules have exceptions. It is said that Whisper once met a girl in the world of the living. Her heart was torn with longing for her dead brother, and life itself had almost abandoned her body, granting her the ability to see the invisible. Touched by her grief, Whisper broke the ancient covenant and agreed to lead her to her brother.

He led her to a serene lake in the heart of the realm of the dead, where a young man sat. Before taking a step forward, the monster uttered, "Remember: the mere sound of your living voice will shatter the silence of this world. Be silent."

She nodded. But when she saw her brother, she forgot the prohibition. She cried out his name. And the silence exploded. The cry of a living person, like a clap of thunder on a windless day, shattered the peace of the dead. The risen spirits, blinded by rage, dragged the girl into the dead abyss of their world. And Whisper could only watch...

Since then, the girl's ghost has wandered among the dead, unable to find solace. And the great guide swore an oath: never again to guide those whose hearts still beat. For compassion can turn into eternal damnation.
