Ever since The Fear occupied The Glimmer, it demanded a single sacrifice annually from the Plumes. This sacrifice would feed the creature and it continued to grow for hundreds of years. To decide which of the them would be sacrificed, elderly Plumes cast lots. When the sacrifice is chosen, known as the Gift, the ceremony of preparation would begin. The Gift is placed inside a cage and taken to Giving Bay. The Piper quiets the crowd and begins wordlessly high singing. As they walk, other Plumes join in until the song halts after reaching the bay. There, the cage door is opened and is hoisted and lowered into the cave.

  • Ever since The Fear occupied The Glimmer, it demanded a single sacrifice annually from the Plumes. This sacrifice would feed the creature and it continued to grow for hundreds of years. To decide which of the them would be sacrificed, elderly Plumes cast lots. When the sacrifice is chosen, known as the Gift, the ceremony of preparation would begin. The Gift is placed inside a cage and taken to Giving Bay. The Piper quiets the crowd and begins wordlessly high singing. As they walk, other Plumes join in until the song halts after reaching the bay. There, the cage door is opened and is hoisted and lowered into the cave. If the Plumes delayed in their offering, The Fear beat against the waters, creating waves that would flood the island and destroy their village.
