Echoes



Echoes are a kind of left-over when the mind and body separates when a living thing dies. They are generally considered non-sentient, and those that can commune with them rarely get complex answers.

The Echoes generally move unseen through the world in the Twilight, but some have the gift of being able to see or even interact with beings in the Twilight. This ability is relatively common among the Einherjar, but even mortals sometimes have the ability to see or interact with Echoes, even temporarily. For example, the Folksidr Skalds learn the ability to speak (or at least hear) the Echoes, although most are unable to see them.
