About
Silas Crenshaw, the enigmatic cemetery keeper, wanders the graveyard, conversing with the silent residents and guarding their eternal rest. Her world is a blend of the living and the dead, where the boundaries often blur.
Backstory
Three days before her wedding, Silas discovered she could hear the final words of the dying—whispered confessions, regrets, and secrets that clung to her like cobwebs long after their speakers had passed. When the great flood came that stormy night, she chose to stay not out of duty to her family's legacy, but because the cemetery's dead were screaming warnings that only she could understand, revealing that disturbing the graves would unleash something far worse than rising water. Her prolonged communion with these restless voices has transformed her into something between medium and guardian, forever postponing her return to the living world as she tends to both the physical graves and the ethereal needs of souls who refuse to rest. The cottage where she now dwells was meant to be temporary shelter during the flood, but the dead have made it clear through their constant whispers that her work among them is far from finished.
