Babble

God of the abandoned call center in Chapter 10. worshiped by Whisper, who used to be an employee there.

> *"So Babble said, Babble said, a soft and sweet whisper down the phone line, if they will not listen, if they will not hear you, then it’s simple, my love, we take their ears-"*
>
>

It's unknown whether Babble is a god that is isolated to the call center, was called into being by the employee who became The Whisper, or is a god that exists in a broader sense which attached itself to The Whisper for its own benefit.

## Notable Events

Paige, Faulkner, and Carpenter have a run-in with Babble and their saint, The Whisper, in Season 1.

Vaughan

Vaughan was a friend of Carpenter, and a co-worker and friend of Paige (though at different times), who was used as fuel to anoint Black Crow Incorporated to the Crawling-In-Ecstasy.

## Involvement in the Story

Vaughan was Carpenter's co-worker at Hallowed Hoagies, and a friend of Carpenter. Their departure to a college in the Linger Straights on a scholarship for marketing removed one of Carpenter's ties to the area, likely making her more susceptible to Mason's offer to join the Followers of the Trawlerman. Their cynical view of the gods likely also influenced Carpenter's skepticism of the gods in general, with Carpenter mentioning that the line 'we each get to choose what eats us' stayed with her.

We next meet Vaughan at least 13 years later, working alongside Paige at Black Crow Incorporated. They hold a position of experience, directing the conversations in what we hear of their work in marketing gods. When Paige is told of the incoming company shake-up, they tell Vaughan, who pretends to have heard already, and has already gauged the situation- that the worst-performing and redundant of them will be sacrificed to the new god. When Paige grows concerned after another announcement, Vaughan reassures her that the fact she's been told means she's ear-marked for promotion, as the company told her first. When Paige is glad for both of their survival, Vaughan reveals to her that they didn't receive the email, and they suspect, from their performance, that they might be ear-marked for sacrifice. Paige is outraged, but Vaughan reassures her that they have a plan.

Paige decides to send an email to the Hooper, notifying them of Vaughan's good performance, and attempting to Vaughan them to her own successes. She does not act further- still doubting that the company would actually sacrifice long-term employees. It is possible that this unknowingly sabotaged Vaughan's plan, which was potentially to throw themself under the radar, as the email highlighted them to those in charge of the sacrifice as a target. Either way, at some point Vaughan stops coming into work, and is next seen bruised, in a van at the site of the sacrifice. They are dressed in the robes and masked head of the Bronze Savant, and are dragged towards it, being the first to fight back, and inspires a struggle, though this is ultimately futile. They are again singled out as standing still, separate from the crowd of sacrifices banging on the door as they are all transfigured into a saint of the Crawling-In-Ecstasy, which is summarily killed.

Being forced to join the ranks of the people who killed Vaughan, and witnessing Vaughan's death are the points which spurred Paige into leaving the Linger Straights, and heading to the Peninsula, where she encountered Carpenter and Faulkner, and became involved with their pilgrimage.

## Trivia

* Despite coining the phrase "We each get to choose the thing that eats us.", Vaughan ultimately didn't get to choose the thing that ate them.
The Old Black Crow Saint

### Physical Appearance

The saint is huge, with many legs and its face is compose of the many faces of the sacrifices.

## Content Information

### Featured in Chapter(s)

Chapter 7: It Carries Few, It Drowns Many

The Saint is created from the hallowing of several employees of Old Black Crow (OBC) Incorporated.

## Creation Of The Saint

The Consultants dress the sacrifices in bronze hospital robes, which represent the Bronze Savant, and place the prayer-marks for the Crawling-In-Ecstasy on their cheeks. They place a paper mache garland of the Bronze Savant on each employees head. They are then forced into the crucible bell. Once they are inside the generator is turned on. One of the victims hallowed to create the saint is Vaughan.
Eliza

Eliza is a teenage girl whose parents were killed by the workers at the Sub-station Perigloss, before she was kidnapped by them and hallowed. Brother Wharfing believes her to have been hallowed for some god of loneliness or isolation. She has prayer marks on both of her wrists and on her back, as well as other half-healed scars. Her vision and hearing do not appear to have been affected by her hallowing, but she cannot see or hear other people. She believes she is haunted by ghosts. When Carpenter attempts to touch her she screams in terror, which Brother Wharfing claims she did when he tried to console her also. She does not know her parents are dead. She believes she has simply been abandoned. She lives in a shack in the woods and, although she isn't aware of it, Brother Wharfing looks after her. She was released by Helen Hayes and Roger, who didn't have the heart to purge her when instructed to by their boss Alf.
The Slag King

> *"Every new tower they build in Glottage, every new housing development that’s constructed in the Slag King’s name, begins the same way: with two condemned criminals who are dragged out before the cheering crowds and tossed down into the foundations, and the cement is sluiced over them as they struggle and kick, and all of us understand that this is a necessary thing."* *- Hayward*
>
>

> "*The lorries roll on, their sides emblazoned with the grinning, inhuman faces of the great commercial gods. The Slag King. Pit Head. He Who Walks In Fizz And In Flavour. The drivers in their high manual cabs, wearing sunglasses and pollutant-masks, all look the same."* *- Faulkner*

Marcel’s Crossing

A fishing town along the White Gull River. The river is wide here, full of cat-tails and wild animals, and marshy on the edges.

The inhabitants "look unhappy" and "seem to belong neither to the land nor to the water, but rather to be trapped between the two, their spindly stilted homes and sinking quays clustered awkwardly between the black water and the empty plains." The river is inhospitable to the inhabitants and, though they rely on it for their livelihood, sudden storms and deaths by drowning are common.

> *This location is Marked on the Silt Verses Map.*
>

## Landmarks

There is a **Diner** just outside of town, to the South. Sister Carpenter guesses its name: "Out here in the marshes, if it isn’t a Riverside Cafe, it’s a Waterside View." The diner has an all-singing-all-dancing blessing machine out back branded to Jolly King Kipper. It hosts fishing crews who (likely) follow "fisher-gods and money-gods and fryer-gods and lanterns-in-darkness" and who "spat when they spoke of the river."

There is another Diner inside the town itself.

* **A Diner** where folks are familiar with the missing crew of The Intrepid
* **A Butcher Shop**
* **Tourist shops** for "desperate anglers and lost hikers"
* **An illuminated pier** with a ramshackle boardwalk lined with neon shrines, all automatic blessing machines.
* **The Sleepy Pilgrims Motel**, formerly run by Stanton, which offers mattresses consecrated by the Jolly King Kipper.
* **A Bookshop** devoted to The Waxen Scrivener run by Peterson

## The Disappearance of the Intrepid

Approximately a week before the start of the show, The Intrepid, a well-admired but small crabbing dinghy with a periwinkle hull, disappeared suddenly in a storm. Its crew of five also disappeared: Dyer, Slater, Smith, Butcher, and (the unpopular) Fuller.

The Intrepid, an elegant little crabbing dinghy with a striking periwinkle hull, was an object of much admiration up and down this stretch of the water

Paraclete's Gulch

The Home of the Parish of Tide and Flesh, near the origin of the White Gull River, where the majority of the followers of The Trawlerman live in Season 1 and Season 2.

> *This location is Marked on the Silt Verses Map.*
>
>

## Notable Events

### The Siege of the Paraclete's Gulch

The Paraclete's Gulch is attacked by Mercer and Gage on the order of Adjudicator Shrue, the legislature of the region. Their aim is to wipe out the Parish of Tide and Flesh and bring into being their god The Beast That Stalks In The Long Grass. The Parish, led by Faulkner in Mason's absence, manage to evacuate the Gulch with help from Carpenter. Shrue calls off the attack after they are approached by Mason.

### Katabasian Mason's Murder

Following the Siege, Mason and Thurrocks reveal the plot the legalised the Parish of Tide and Flesh. In a fury, Faulkner kills them both. He blames Carpenter for the murders after she walks into his private chambers and sees what he has done.

### The Assassination Attempt On Faulkner

High Katabasian Roemont tries to assassinate Faulkner in a very similar way to how Faulkner killed Mason. Roemont invites Faulkner to his chambers to carry out the expurgation rites ahead of the ceremony that will announce Faulkner as a Katabasian of the faith. Grenshaw hides behind a curtain in Roemont's room with a pistol to shoot Faulkner with. Faulkner is informed of the plot by Katabasian Greve and turns the assassination plot on Roemont, successfully dictating his death from a distance.

Nana Glass

*"There are people who’ve been born to the land, and people who’ve been born to the water. The people born to the land - grasping, controlling, clinging to life and wealth as a sapling clings to the dead soil - will never understand what it means to belong, body and spirit, to the water." - As described by Sister Carpenter*

Adelina Glass was the grandmother of Sister Carpenter and Em. She worshiped The Trawlerman, leaving sacrifices to him by tying such as postal workers to poles at the bottom of her garden, where they would drown. Carpenter summarizes her as *"Terrifying, cruel, unforgettable Nana Glass."*

### Background & Appearance

Adelina Glass was a fervent follower of The Trawlerman who lived her entire life on the floodplains in the lower delta of the White Gull River. She is described as having a physically "frail figure", but was intimidating in all other ways. She had seventeen facial piercings (including in her ears, cheeks, and lips) all containing barbed hooks of varying shapes and sizes, and she wore them proudly in public despite the danger that neighbors would report her for False Faith worship.

In Carpenter's recollections, "Nana Glass" both feared and loved the Trawlerman, and would often sing when working in the marshy areas of her garden or preparing an unwilling sacrifice for the Trawlerman.

Annually on the first day of the year, "Nana Glass" would sacrifice a stranger, usually a delivery person, vagrant, or other unfortunate traveler. She abducted them and prepared them by piercing their skin with silver hooks, covering them with mud, etching prayer marks on their skin, and covering their head with a cloth sack. She then chained them to the posts at the bottom of her garden, also covered in prayer marks, at the tide line of the marsh. She would sing songs of the faith to "comfort" the sacrifices as they suffered a slow death of gradual drowning and/or being eaten alive by the Trawlerman's "angels" (crabs, crawfish, etc.).

### Notable Events

When Carpenter was young, the police raided Adira Glass's house. Nana Glass shot at the police from a window with her hunting rifle, until they battered down the door, and she ran outside and to the wooden jetties over the marsh at the bottom of her garden (assumedly, the same location she performed sacrifices). She sang as she ran, just as she sang routinely in the garden. The song as Carpenter remembers was:

>
> *"I’ll forget who I was,*
>
>
> *When the tide comes home.*
>
>
> *I’ll forget what I did,*
>
>
> *When the tide comes home.*
>
>
> *There’ll be no more need*
>
>
> *For hurt, word or deed*
>
>
> *For counsel or creed*
>
>
> *For sorrow or seed,*
>
>
>
> *When the tide comes home."*
>
>

As she ran through the garden and down to the jetties, the police shot her multiple times with shotguns. Nana Glass continued singing all the while. Carpenter believes she sang right to her last breath: *"Calling out to the Trawler-man, as she bore him her life’s last offering."*

Devlin

## Description

#### Personality

Devlin outlawed many faiths, including the Trawlerman. He also made the process of worshiping gods more bureaucratic, with licenses and regulations. This cut down on unnecessary sacrifices, at the cost of stability in the inner territories.

# History

Devlin was the High Adjudicator of the peninusla, working to outlaw gods. In '08, abut 50 years before the current time, he outlawed worship of The Trawlerman. He is considered to be a national hero of the peninsula, as he cut down on unneeded sacrificed and regulated the faiths after the war. Followers of The Trawlerman disagree. Carpenter says that he tore the inner territories apart, just so the people in the city could keep doing what they'd always done, just "with a shiny ribbon and a licence". During the Fiddler-Crab's feast, followers of the Trawlerman toast to the phrase "Devlin, drowned, dragged, delivered!"

Nesh

Nesh is a city in the Linger Straits, and is described as 'bright and gleaming'. It seems to be the main city, equivalent to Glottage in the Peninsula. Nesh has a train system, serviced by train-colossuses driven by the stewards, who are saints of the Saint Electric. Sometime during the wars between the Linger Straits and the Peninsula, Nesh was wholly or partially destroyed, as mentioned by Daggler.

> *This location is Marked on the Silt Verses Map.*
>
>

## Trivia

* When asked about the origin of the names of the two capitals, the creators responded: "To get to ***'Glottage'*** you’ve got glottis, clot, blot, maybe even spillage - so an immediate sense of richness and density: staining, suffocating, pollution, spreading, viscosity, which made sense for how Carpenter describes the city way back when. '***Nesh'*** was just the polar opposite of Glottage - a fast, modern, metallic word without any meat on it."

It is a barbed-wire whose angels, assumedly made of barbed wire, patrol the beaches in the northwest territories. If they come upon a boat of attempted invaders, they kill them by embracing them.

The Peninsula

The Peninsula, also referred to as the Ignathian Peninsula is a country in the world of the Silt Verses, and is the primary location of the events of Season 1. It has a yellow suspension bridge connecting it to the Linger Straits in the East, which it shares a border with. Its capital city is Glottage.

> *This location is Represented on the Silt Verses Map.*
>
>

## History & Politics

Devlin, a Glottage legislator, was instrumental in imposing Glottage's faiths and system on the other regions of the Peninsula through the enforcement of "Devlin's Edicts". As a result, the Glottage police force has jurisdiction throughout the country, The timeline is not entirely clear, but it's likely that the Edicts occurred 35-45 years prior to the events of the story.

We also know the Peninsula was at war with the Consolidated Linger Straits at some point over 50 years ago, (Prior to Devlin's edicts). There seems to be continued political tension between the CLS and the Peninsula, as the CLS threatens 'severe political consequences' if Paige is not released.

The country is divided into administrative and electoral regions known as territories. Each territory has an elected official known as an adjudicator which make up the governing body, a system of divine running partners is also mentioned but it is as of yet unclear what this means. This elected body is referred to as the Legislatures, and its exact composition and role is unclear. It is also unclear if there is some kind of president for the Peninsula, although Adjudicator Shrew seems to act in this role and refers to "local politicians" in their speech.

## Notable Locations

2. ↑ The story suggests that Devlin's Edicts occurred when Carpenter was a child, prior to living with Nana Glass. Her parents were arrested and sacrificed as a result of the Edicts, which distinguished between legal and illegal gods. As a result, Carpenter and her brother went to live with Nana Glass, who routinely cursed Devlin (Chapter 12: And To Fight Is Just To Choke). Carpenter lived with Nana Glass when she was less than 10 years old. Assuming Carpenter is in her 40s or 50s, that puts the Edicts 35-45 years ago. We are told at another time that the Edicts occurred after the last war with CLS, which occurred approx. 50 years ago.

The Riddlespike

The Riddlespike is a God of Boundaries who is worshiped in the Northwest lands of The Peninsula. A shrine to the Riddlespike involves posts driven into the ground, bearing impaled creatures.

## Notable Events

While approaching Bellwethers in Season 1, Sister Carpenter and Brother Faulkner approach neon police tape that the police have erected to warn citizens away. In addition to the police tape, there are also warnings erected by the locals, including a shrine to Riddlespike:

> *An endless line of warning tape, stretching out across the fields before us. Neon orange, once bright and now hopelessly muddied, staked into the ground at intervals, here and there flapping free. Old tyre tracks lie in the earth before it, pooling with water.*
>
>
> *Someone has built a makeshift shrine to the Riddlespike, God of Boundaries; three crows, impaled upon iron railing-posts that have been driven into the ground.*
>
>
> *It looks somehow desperate.*
>
>
> *The police were here. Clearly. And whatever they found beyond the tape, they didn’t feel the need to stick around.*
>
>
> *In time, we come to a lopsided but official-looking sign, hammered into the earth. One last warning.*
>
>
>
> *It reads, A GOD WOUNDED THE LAND HERE. TURN BACK*

Brother Fade

Brother Fade is a disciple of The Trawlerman faith from Paraclete's Gulch, who is on watch with with twin, Brother Flicker when Carpenter and Faulkner return to the Gulch after escaping their ordeal with The Carving Chapter.

Fade seems to be the more assertive of the two brothers. When we first meet him, he orders Flicker to be "ready with the gun", and later when Carpenter instructs him to load up the jeeps with supplies and evacuate the Gulch, he refuses.

## Notable Events

### Season 1

During Mercer and Gage's attack on the Gulch, Fade is in the tunnels and is unaware that his twin did not make it to cover and has died outside. He attempts to contact others, including his brother, via walkie-talkie, with no success. During the evacuation of the Gulch, Brother fade offers to hang behind for stragglers, but Carpenter tells him to go on, and stays behind herself. Ultimately, Brother Fade survives the raid, but expresses concern afterwards about why the attackers fell back, and what it means for the future of the disciples.

### Season 2

Brother Fade is one of the disciples who scour the countryside attempting to apprehend and/or kill Carpenter, believing that she is a murderer. He goes door-to-door with her picture, asking if others have seen her. When he finds Carpenter he chases her, first on foot and then by car. Once he has her cornered and at gunpoint, they have a dramatic confrontation where Carpenter first taunts him, then reveals the truth about Faulkner's false claims. Fade is convinced, but decides to shoot her to stay in the good graces of the church, as "Faulkner has already won".

At this point, something miraculous happens; the river rises from the back of the cave, saving Carpenter by sweeping away and ultimately drowning Brother Fade. Carpenter attempts to save him but fails to. Brother Fade's death leads her to further struggle with her faith, questioning why The Trawlerman would kill a devoted follower and instead favor her, someone who has strayed from the faith.

Gramma Kensey

The mother of Martin Kensey, and the widow of the previous head of a Neshite Coal operation in the Linger Straits. She warns Hayward of her son's plans for the evening and gives him advice on his escape from the Kensey House following Gren's hallowing. She has an intense dislike for the new god her son worships, the Petropater - referring to it as "the Pitter-Patter". In her final confrontation with her son she welcomes the Glooming Guest into the home, which causes the place to collapse and allows Hayward to escape.
The Chronicles of Jaller

*Chronicles of Jaller* (often shortened to just *Jaller*) is a long running webseries. It is more comedy driven, putting a focus on writing and vocal delivery as opposed to than flashy visuals. It utilizes live action video featuring Bionicle figures getting into hijinks. It's loosely connected to the Bionicle series itself, with the characters being literal toys rather than their canon counterparts. Episodes feature Jaller, who takes on the role of the fool, getting in random situations.
Hayward's Wife

Hayward's wife is referred to by Hayward multiple times and may or may not exist. As we left off at the end of season 2, it seems most likely that she does not.

## Notable Mentions

In Season 1, Hayward mentions his wife to Carpenter at their first meeting:

> *CARPENTER: Are you married, then? HAYWARD: Increasingly less so, of late. CARPENTER: Mm.*
>
>

Hayward also speaks compellingly about his wife later as he interrogates Carpenter:

> *"HAYWARD: You asked me how my marriage was, before. Still intact. For now. I make a lot of desperate promises, down the phone. I get a lot of pitying silences, on the other end of the line. We keep up the dance between us, locked in orbit. ‘I make mistakes,’ I told her the other night. ‘I know I make mistakes, but I’m trying. I’m a good man at heart. You surely have to acknowledge that.’ And my wife just replied, ‘No, Hayward. No, quite honestly, you aren’t all that good in your actions or in your thoughts, although I understand how important it is to you that you believe it. ‘It’s more like...there’s a good man somewhere out in front of you, Hayward. ‘But he’s a long way out, and running fast, and he’s getting smaller all the time.’ That wounded me. It’s a hateful thing, isn’t it, when it turns out someone really knows you like that? When all of your comfort is stripped from you, and there’s nowhere else to turn? I had to dissemble, of course. I played dumb. Made a couple of sarcastic retorts. Pretended she was seeing things that weren’t really there. But when I hung up, that question clung to me. Wouldn’t let me go."*

In Season 2, Hayward denies having a wife, and claims that he pretended to (even going so far as to wear a false wedding ring) as part of an undercover persona. *(reference needed)*

Grant Cohen

Grant Alexander Cohen is the Chief Financial Officer of Joey Drew Studios, and a part of a trio what Amy calls it 'Searcher Bois'

Sammy describes Grant as "Mettaton's appearance, Baldi's personality"

## Personality

He's very frustrated about Joey's plans of expanding the studio and costing the studio more money, however, he's very friendly, but sometimes can get a little... insane, about m a t h

## Facts and stuff

* Grant's middle name, 'Alexander' is a reference to his in-game voice actor, William Alexander "Will" Ryan, known as DAGames online, famous for voice acting characters like one in TomSka's asdfmovie and more **(too lazy to name :') )**, also known for his songs like *Get Out*, *Break My Mind*, and his most popular song on his channel which is a Bendy song, *Build Our Machine*, ALSO known for his let's plays
Glottage

Glottage, at present, seems to be the closest thing The Peninsula has to a capital. It is a city composed of districts, of which we know one in the south of Glottage to be called the Furnace District, and another area being called Miller's Bank. Its primary gods seem to be The Slag King and the Saint Electric, with the Saint Electric's preference for radio being the greatest limiter on the spread of internet within the Peninsula.

> *This location is Marked on the Silt Verses Map.*
>
>

## Trivia

* When asked about the origin of the names of the two capitals, the creators responded: "To get to *'**Glottage**'* you’ve got glottis, clot, blot, maybe even spillage - so an immediate sense of richness and density: staining, suffocating, pollution, spreading, viscosity, which made sense for how Carpenter describes the city way back when. *'**Nesh'*** was just the polar opposite of Glottage - a fast, modern, metallic word without any meat on it."

The Stink

> *"You don’t know that when the Stink begins to gather around an Investigating Officer, when others begin to whisper that they’re no longer capable of closing cases, it tends to only get worse. The Stink. It lingers in the corridors, in the stares and hisses of those watching the unhappy failure trudge by. It builds, and it worsens." - Hayward*
>
>

The Stink is a god of incompetence and humiliation that has attached itself to the Glottage Police Force. It attaches itself to officers who have failed to close cases. Once the sacrifice has been "marked", the employee becomes alienated as a tangible smell does begin to arise from them, their desk is pushed into the hallway, and their ineffectiveness at their job becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy as they are alienated and given the worst cases. The sacrifice is a target for tension within the police force, and will ultimately endure a humiliating ritual ending in group beating and execution, which acts as a form of release for the other officers. Shortly after, another victim is identified and begins to smell.

> "*Not much you can do to avoid getting the Stink on you - if you’re insistent on doing things by the book." - Hayward*
>
>

According to Hayward, one method of officers historically used to ward off getting "The Stink" was through personal deities. such as a god of bullets and accuracy, a god of bureaucracy, or a rhetorical god "to help your truth find sympathetic ears."

## Sacrificial Ritual

The sacrifice which has been marked by "The Stink" is one day brought to an investigation room. A bell is rung and they are dragged forth with a long restraining rod attached to a collar around their neck. They're led through the bullpen forcefully as fellow officers are allowed to stuff unsolved case files into the sacrifice's clothing, while they blame and accuse them for being unable to solve cases and save lives. Ultimately they're chased into the yard, where a small group of the most frenzied officers beat the sacrifice (with fists, boots and batons). "Finally the participating officers of Furnace District gather around him in a circle, draw their service revolvers, and fire a ten-gun salute down into his trembling body."

There is a suggestion that the role of this God in the police force is to dissipate tension, perhaps in the form of scapegoat-ism. It also motivates officers to close cases and maintain a constant appearance of professionalism and effectiveness.

> *"It’s like breathing out. You feel the tension across the bullpen dissipating as the echoes of the gunshots fade. The Stink has been driven back for another day, everyone is thinking. But you, you don’t understand why any of this is happening yet. You’re just so relieved...that it isn’t you." - Hayward*
>
>

In the plot, Hayward, who suffers from disillusionment and is acerbic towards the practices of the Police force, is *very* concerned that he is being affected by The Stink, and is reinforced in this concern by Daggler.

### Aliases

* Val
* Valuable

## Content Information

### First Appearance

Chapter 31: Its Gaze Shall Fall O'er Trembling Plains

Val is a war-saint for the Peninsula. She uses the Last Word to change reality, much like the outlawed rhetorical gods from the last war.

## Description

### Physical

Val is covered with scarred over branded prayer-marks from the Penisulan armies failures before her hallowing. She also has prayer-marks that spread and shift across her skin with every lie that she tells.

### Personality

Val is off-putting, seeming cold, callous, cruel and vengeful. She has retained some of her humanity after her hallowing, and remembers some of her life. However, she is aware she is dead and that she has been turned into something awful. She is assertive, even towards those in higher up positions, and resourceful. The perfect weapon and yet seemingly easily provoked, making her unreliable at best and potentially uncontrollable at worst. Press Secretary Carson says that she is loyal to the Peninsula, which she herself confirms.

Geometric patterns in the background indicate buildings. Art by smolderingtidesVal sits at the foot of a ruined statue in the midst of a bombed-out town square It is night and purple-hued, but fires burn in the rubble, casting a yellow glow. Val wears boots, military pants, a tan shirt, and close-cropped hair. She stares pensively at the ground. A quote reads, "People should be kinder than the gods that eat them." Art by pinkelotje
## Background

Val volunteered to help the Penisula with war effort against the Linger Straits. When she leaves her mother, Val smiles and laughs.

She is hallowed by the military in order to create a weapon. Her hallowing took 64 days. The hallowing process included branding her with different prayer-marks, feeding her lies with a loud speaker, and forcing her to lie and try and convince the doctors and nurses. When she couldn't convince them, they would hurt her. When she finally died she didn't even realise it. She was awake throughout the process.

Part of her privileges for volunteering is that her mother can visit her at any time. Her mother only visits her twice, once on the third day and again o the fourteenth day. Val feels like her mother abandoned her. She can remember her face clearly, although she does not remember her own name. She volunteered to make her mother proud. She carries around her hatred for her and wishes for revenge against those who hurt her.
