With the guilt over the life of his men weighing on him, and the shame his actions has brought upon his family, Al’beric has taken up a life of adventuring, seeking to atone. And even though it may seem he takes refuge in old comforts too, he always feels the coldness on the inside. And the whisper, which he thought he left behind in the void, has returned…
