What the Whispering Fire Reveals

When the firepit’s embers settle into a soft, amber glow, a faint trill rises from the shadows. It is not a creature of daylight, but one that listens for the perfect heat.

Listening for the Song

Approach the pit quietly. When the embers pulse just right—neither too bright nor too dim—the bird’s melody begins. The notes are short, like a sigh, and they repeat in a pattern of three.

The Name It Carries

Those who have heard the song call it the Emberwing. Its feathers are said to shimmer with the colors of the fire, and its name is spoken only when the pit sings back.

Why It Matters

Knowing the Emberwing’s name lets you ask for its guidance. In Glowveil Hollow, the bird is a keeper of hidden pathways, and a single word can open a quiet trail through the mist.
