Rune Discovery : 「 Failure 」
As you travel through the Hollow, you gradually feel more and more ... paranoid. A generalized sense of unease washes over you. You feel as though the shadows are watching you, maybe even laughing at you. Are they mocking your fear? Are they mirroring your paranoia?
Whatever the feeling is, it sets you on edge, and you feel the fur along your hackles begin to rise.
Somewhere, in the distance, another branch snaps. There is rustling above you.
And as you turn up toward it, you see the bird again. But this time, the bird seems to be looking directly at you. Unlike before, when it seemed to be minding its own business, this time it seems intent upon you. It appears almost ... sentient. It is nearly pitch-black, but ... is that a shimmer of blue in its feathers?
There is a moment when things are quiet, and then finally the bird croaks horribly:
You are just left with the eyes of the shadows on you.

Yiar krite! Elsahire! Ha, ha, haaaa!It sounds like a crow, and yet it speaks in a language you don't understand. And with a final, frog-like laugh, the bird lifts off into the night sky and disappears from your view.
