So finally, after putting the scattered pages back where they belonged in the book, I went through each of them one more time, then proceeded to read the final entry:

“The Deranged”

“The sixth Whisper, driven by pure fury and violence. It takes upon a temporary physical form to wield the blade and strike at anyone who’s foolish enough to engage in battle.

Very few managed to escape it alive, and nobody was able to subdue its anger.”

As I stared at the sketch before me, I began pondering. Although I gathered some answers, I was left with far more questions than I had prior.

Just who were these people? How and why did they die? What’s kept them from passing on after death?

And who was that stranger at the Isles...?

I closed the book and kept it safely stored among others I found. Maybe I’ll revisit it when my head’s clearer and have found a new clue. But until then...
