The Quiet One was a nightmare-feasting Mesopotamian Chaedra, renowned around Arabia for its terrible deeds.
Actions
The first reports of the Quiet One originated from the early Mesopotamian people, who reported a 'ghost with gems for eyes' on the outskirts of their rice paddies. According to Joan Brassel Ph.D of Ridgeshire College, "The Quiet One was perhaps one of the earliest examples of an 'Urban Legend' gone wild. The children of Mesopotamia were feareful of the Quiet One; and rightfully so." Ancient Cuneiform tablets tell of routine harvests, stonings, and trade receipts. However, one particular tablet, dubbed the 'Accursed Tab", featured sprawling, self-contradictory writings concerning the Quiet One; as well gruesomely listing as the horrific state in which it rendered many of its victims.
Accursed Tab Section 1
In Accursed Tab, section 1, the Mesopotamian Philosopher Mat Ra writes; "The first Victim was Elder Fie; who was found without hand and without organ in the mud outside our paddy. She was still alive." later on, Mat Ra's handwriting becomes jagged; abnormal, even, and he continues, "Elder Fie was uninjured. None were harmed. I am going, now." The passage abruptly ends after this.
Accursed Tab Section 2
The second passage was infinitely more disturbing than the last; with lists of miscellaneous body parts found scattered around the villages. At times, extremities were located anomalously beneath pillows, beds, or in wells. Mat Ra details a horrendium in which the Carrot Yield for one year, when piled together, was discovered to have been rife with human fingers and toes. Mat also details how the Village Cleric's donkey mysteriously gave 'birth' to a severed human head.
Work Experience
The Quiet One was an objectively terrible individual. It perched itself on the roofs of straw and mud huts at night, licking its cracked and charred lips as it 'listened' to the dreams of the humans below. It waited until the people were in REM sleep- when they were most vulnerable, and then, in a wretched, horrid move, dropped its long, goo-like phallus down from beneath its legs. The phallus crept, like a snake, down the roofs and into the windows or doorways, wrapping around posts and table legs to stabilize itself. It would then creep up onto the beds
