Perhaps the ones that dwelled here in the first place. I have heard some theories but a lot of it is just people talking. However, one common element is that there are places on these islands that can make a person change. Likewise, there are beings on this island that can cause a person to change. In fighting the sea-demons, I was wounded, but also splashed with something they kept in one of their huts at the settlement of theirs. My wound healed fine, but my leg never became quite the same.

This is a place where I believe its appropriate to say that you either work together or die alone."
