The First Unhushing
Corr Ash-Tongue's own litany, cut into a small temple-bronze grave-bell at the top of his tower — the song with which the first gravesinger taught the dead their names instead of laying them down, and climbed past dying himself. Whoever sounds it commands what he built: lay the tower's dead to rest at last, or take up his unfinished verse and keep the court climbing forever.
At the gravesinger's seat hangs a small bell of temple-bronze, its rim cut all around with the litany Corr sang to raise his court — the first work of the Ash-Tongue method, the same method the tribes unmade the Ash-Tongues for knowing. It is not loud. Rung once, the wights on every landing turn their faces to it the way a choir turns to its choirmaster's cue, and what the bearer sings into it, the dead obey: a name remembered, or a name finally let go. In the litany is everything Corr knew about climbing past death. With it a gravesinger could lay the whole tower to its long-overdue rest in a single descending verse — or take up Corr's unfinished song and become the next voice the court answers to. The Unsealing would copy it backward to wake Vallen's Barrow; the Mourners would melt it; the Cinder Quorum's Sevda Ash-Tongue, who carries the name without his leave, means to be the one who decides which.
