"A Whisper in the Storm" = Arbiter Prayer
Posted By: Spacegoat <Stratplayer525@msn.com>Date: 1/8/05 3:37 p.m.

I don't know if this was already mentioned. This is my first time in the forums.

"I wander the earth. I seek your forgiveness for my horrible crimes against God. Amen . I wish to seek death, destruction. the light, let the light that cannot be extinguished-"

I thought about it for a minute, and it dawned on me that this is a prayer of forgiveness. Since this is the scene where the Arbiter is made into an Arbiter, the words in this prayer make sense. It is quite possibly an Arbiter's prayer of forgiveness to the Prophets. The line, "I wish to seek death, destruction" sounds similar to the Arbiter's wishes to be executed rather than become an Arbiter. The mention of "the light that cannot be extinguished" makes me wonder if it means something about the great journey.
I don't think this could be Gravemind. It is too early in the game, although I believe you hear the same "whisper" when playing on the level High Charity or Gravemind.

Another possibility is that this is an actual prayer from the Common Book of Prayers or a Psalm. Somebody should look for this in a Bible.
