Down by the Reeds is the song that Hannah sings when you approach her for the first time in Oakfield during The Ritual. She repeats it until the hero walks up to her. Down by the reeds Down by the reeds Float the souls left unbroken by White Balverines Down by the reeds Night-blooming weeds Embrace those who go dancing, In sad moonlit dreams. Down by the reeds A twisted path leads To Banshees who breathe out A cold winter breeze. Nobody knows. Nobody sees. The sirens of Oakvale. Down by the reeds.
