A sect founded by the Wordless Prophet in 1129 ST
- Some factions were so opposed to communication that they forgot writing and walled up books in special libraries.
- It had surgeons who could excise certain psychic organs to guarantee spiritual peace.
- Occasionaly persecuted, it nevertheless persisted.
- In 1134 ST, the Jinalyalf Dynasty ruler of Adinor converted.
- In 1150 ST, they controlled Lonegburch as they sealed the famous library there.
- In 1237 ST, Elassi the Stiffler, the ruler of Emanus, converted to Silence and launched a crusade to forcibly induct the world into Silence.
- His faction, the Militant Silence were drug-ridden fanatics.
- They established the Lands of the Silenced and started the Wars against Silence
- In 1290 ST, Afadjann invaded the Lands of the Silenced, which prompted the formation of the Clamourers
- In 1313 ST, the wars were brought to an end when Little Morishdo took Emanus.
- The sealing of Lonegburch was broken until after 1478 ST when Tortrica freed itself.
- This suggests the Fonritans might have tolerated Silence worship in their lands.
- The cult still survives to this day
- It is led by Agato the Silent Sage in Sulanbari
