Speaker is a title held by numerous individuals, most notably The Speaker. They are individuals who could hear the Traveller during the Golden Age and spread the teachings of the Light, but after the Collapse their numbers dwindled and their connection to the Traveller was damaged.

History

The First Speaker to see Ghosts

"I let the little Ghosts follow me. We talk about what the Traveler was like before the Collapse. They like to hear it, and I like to remember."
— The Third Speaker

After the events of The Collapse, the Traveler cut itself into a tiny pieces and sent them out into the world. The Third Speaker attracted one of those pieces which he thought was a surveillance drone, but on closer look saw something organic and natural which was nothing like their old technology. Eventually they called them Ghosts as some were childlike, while others were apathetic and world-weary. The Speakers ghost interjects by saying they’re all searching for something.[1]

The Speaker would attract many Ghosts who follow him around questioning how the Traveler was like before the Collapse and what the Traveler told him. He suspects that deep with core they still remember being whole with the Traveler. The Speaker also reflect on all the dreams he can still remember, as he hasn’t dreamed since the Collapse and felt like being in a dream state again.[1]

He continues his travel through the wilderness; slowly being reclaimed by nature, to his reach a settlement where resources are scarce and land so poisoned crops won't grow. The Speaker describes the harsh conditions of human living as they now protect themselves and rarely venture out at night as Wolves prey on their livestock and Bears wander around their compound.

Walking through the settlement, a Ghost leads him to a barn and asks him to out of sight as he will "scare her". The Speaker, bemused, crouches back and observes the Ghost hover over the remains of a person and scans it with pale light. To his amazement, The Speaker witnesses the body of a woman awake and gasp as she sits up. The Ghost calms the women with her words and The Speaker feels amazed and jealous and later ashamed to what he witnessed.[1]
