"Did you guys hear that?" Gerrard asked as he looked up and around.
"Hear what?" Jeanne asked with her eyebrows furrowed.
"A distinct scream," Gerrard asked as he kept looking around and started to feel frustrated by the sound that he could only hear. "I will ignore it for now," Gerrard said with the bow ready in his hands.
The group thought Gerrard was imagining things or maybe experiencing some sort of hallucination of black magic. When they got deeper into the forest, they all finally heard what Gerrard had heard. It was as he said. It was the sound of a scream, a scream as if someone was being tortured badly.
"What is that?!" Rozan started to feel uncomfortable when hearing that non-stop scream that came from the distance.
"Oh, that's a whistler. They called it the death whistle," Manna answered as he looked in the direction of the distinct scream of pain.
"Death whistle? So it's not an actual person screaming in pain?" Gunnar asked.
