[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 3596466, member: 4936"] For everything that is seen, there is a thing that is not seen. From the very beginning, knowledge is exclusive...to know one thing is to not know another. This carries upward from the basic building blocks of reality, where you can know the PLACE of a thing, or the SPEED of a thing, but never both. Knowledge and Secrets are lovers, even in the cold void of nothingness. They are born together and live entwined, even though the one is the opposite of the other as well. Out of this duality is born a shadowy half-glimpsed presence. She's the other half of the equation. Where the light of knowledge and determinism shines, she's in the shadows of uncertainty it casts. She's the road not taken, the dark side of the moon. Long hence, when the first mortals stare with conscious minds at the endless dark of the night sky, they'll sense her there and name her the Lady of Mysteries, or the Eyes in the Night. Hers is the icy stare you feel on your back when you're doing something you'll never tell anyone else about, under cover of darkness...even though you KNOW you're alone. No secret escapes her notice, and when she speaks it is not in godly bellows, but in the tiniest of whispers. Whisper is the god not of knowledge, but instead of what isn't and in some cases what can't be known. Paradox, mystery, riddle and secret. She is a quiet, cold presence...not given to displays of emotion. Her favor is as subtle as her vengeance and either can easily be mistaken for luck...favorable or foul. As goddess of secrets, it's little surprise that Whisper's motives are guarded, her methods deep and subtle, and her plots often full of labyrinthine twists and turns...except when that's what one would expect.
