SoM Chapter 20
Chapter Twenty: Missing History edit
Kinesee, bored amid toddler twins Kovin and Neesebelu's antics, encounters a new translucent ghost—a younger blond woman—who shushes her, interacts lovingly with the children (mimicking hair brush, saying "Sosdolu imêm tidin"), and responds to "shits" expletive. Alerting nanny Budoe and Izilfer, Kinesee confirms ghost visibility to twins; Izilfer's prayer senses nothing. Ghost departs with "Mêisotu nastuô" (possibly "baby girl, see you later" in Canonic Silone). Post-nap, Kinesee recruits Rinold and Nehek for ghost insights: Rinold recounts ruins encounter where ghost heard him; Nehek wards dead, knowing haunted spots. Kinesee reveals Codex Room map glowing to ghost surge, enlisting Rinold to query spirits for hidden libraries. Nehek spots unseen white lion stalking walls; Kinesee feels it, Rinold senses deception.
