Some legendary Cave Raiders earn the title of White Whistles, one of them being Riko's mother, Lyza, who is presumed dead after taking a 'last descent' into the Abyss.

The deeper one goes, the more acute the effects of the curse few who have descended into the lower regions have returned to tell of their experiences. Returning from the Abyss can be dangerous as 'the Curse of the Abyss,' a mysterious and potentially fatal malady, manifests upon ascension. The Abyss harbors artifacts and remnants of civilizations long gone, and is therefore a popular hunting spot for so-called Cave Raiders, who undertake arduous and dangerous descents into the mist-filled pit to recover whatever relics they can find. The town surrounds a strange, giant hole descending deep into the earth, which is known as the Abyss.
