The Murmur

The Murmur is a enemy Faction encountered in the Albrecht's Laboratories tileset. Murmur are first introduced during the Whispers in the Walls quest. 
Known by many names, they are the hands, feet and eyes of the Man in the WallTennoCon 2023 Recap - Whispers in the Walls, but it remains unclear whether or not the "Man in the Wall" is part of the Murmur itself. The Murmur is currently attempting to break through Albrecht's Laboratories and into the Origin System - something the will need to stop at all costs. Among their ranks there are also incorporated rogue and malfunctioned Necramechs.

==Overview==
Created from Void energy by the Man in the Wall, the Murmur are an eldritch threat. They appear to be stone-like geometric constructs with human-like limbs. and possess the unique ability to combine together into larger entities, such as The Fragmented.
Cut from the Indifference itself, split apart, dismembered, and then put back together into freakishly new forms. The more fragmented the Murmur are, the more mindless they become, only being able to display sufficient amounts of lucidity when fused together into larger, more monstrous forms.
The Murmur naturally resides within the Great Indifference,"The Murmur's envoy lurks somewhere within the Great Indifference. To find it, administer a visionary serum to our Vitreum scanners." - Fibonacci when fighting The Fragmented. an upside-down, Void-based environment that resembles numerous interconnected megalith structures, covered in barren sand and cliff-like outcroppings. Whether this is the being of the Man in the Wall itself, or a different location located in the Void, is unknown.
Additionally, these characteristics can also be seen in locations that have been invaded by the Murmur; an ever-present reminder of their corrupting influence.

===Rogue Necramechs===
Originally designed to defend Albrecht’s Laboratories from outsiders, these Necramechs have gone rogue and will attempt to destroy any interlopers who cross their path. While not strictly of the Murmur, they have long since malfunctioned and now fight alongside the very threats they were meant to battle against. <tabber>Rogue Arcocanid=

==Trivia== 
*A murmur is soft, indistinct sound made by someone speaking quietly or at a distance.
*Mur, from Latin mūrus, is a word meaning "wall" in several indo-european languages, so technically this faction's name could be translated to English as "WallWall", which can be a direct reference to the Man in the Wall.
*The Murmur bear a significant resemblance to the Man in the Wall, as the segments that make up their bodies display a similar shape to the Man's crown-like head.
*The Murmur were first revealed during TennoCon 2023.
*Murmur fragments and constructs feature metallic limbs similar to the Void-contaminated structures and Void Angels found aboard the Zariman. Considering Teshin mentioned Void Angels being servants of The Man in the Wall"If the Void Angels break through the Wall, their Master will be freed, Do not allow that to happen" -Teshin during Void Flood missions within the Undercroft, this showed a connection between them.
