Spoiler frog.png This page contains SPOILERS from Book of Travels.

Rumors are an important part of the Braided Shore. This page is dedicated to keeping track of, organizing, and substantiating the rumors heard in the Braided Shore by generic Wind Voice sometimes also called Voice NPCs. This does not refer to the specific NPCs called Wind Voice who have their own page.

Unlike other dialogue, rumors are not unique to a single NPC or set of NPCs and may be repeated by multiple random NPC characters primarily in the squares and teahouses of the three towns, Myr, Bat Saha, and Crossings. This distinguishes them from the reports of the Town Reporters. Selka, Malku Su, and Sah Basir NPCs also sometimes speak lore in italics that relates to their culture and these NPCs are identified by race. Those sayings are recorded in the page about each racial group.

In addition many rumors are mutually contradictory, speculative, or cryptic and therefore unreliable. However some have proven to reveal quests, secrets, and game mechanics.

Dialogue
Silence in the heart and the head
more is learned with least that's said
Nothing earthly can bind a wind.
Except perhaps a Fall gem...
Long the dark
sharp the dawn
No Voice is the same
as no Wind is the same...
I see the winds in the dark.
Walk the path
be the path.
Clouds as stones
will water bones.
You might feel the wind.
A Voice lives it.
I was once possessed...I became a Voice then.
What fate to be one of the chosen at the mercy of the winds?
What matters the worldly Bells of Time to us voices?
Heed not the northeastern wind,
for it is evil, rigid and judgmental.
Many of us hear the Voice as adulthood dawns.
Cloudy or clear, the moon sees all.
The wind sends whispers to the moon!
