Culture note

The word is sacred; a lie is a heavy fault. Silence is as valuable as sound. Children learn to listen before they speak; hearing outranks sight.

The Echo-Bound descend from the survivors of the Crystal Scream of 327 KM. Living generations among singing crystals reshaped them: their hearing outgrew their sight, and their culture grew around the voice.

To the Echo-Bound the word is sacred. Lying is a grave fault — sound carries intent, and a false note is audible to those who know how to listen. Silence is valued as much as speech, and children are taught to listen before they are taught to talk.

Music, rhythm, and vibration run through their daily life, from work songs to the resonant seal work that makes their card masters famous and feared.
