Linnie

Linnie is an enigmatic supporting character in Whispered Faith, pulling many strings from the background in order to get Lee and his friends where they need to go. Her motives are unclear, but she seems to be against The Speaker and The Family, even going so far as to steal the Knife from Lee in order to keep it out of their hands. She often leaves Lee cryptic hints in order to guide him along a specific path, although the end goal is not yet known. She first appeared in The Viaduct, killing a member of The Family and holding Sean off long enough for Lee to escape.

Whispered Faith Act 1 And 2
Linnie is first mentioned in WhisperedFaith when her name is found in a diary by Lee. She is also mentioned by Sean at one point. Linnie introduces herself in A Request, revealing herself to be the person who saved Lee on the bridge from The Family, as well as the mysterious "L" who had been messaging him.

Lee eventually responds to her request to meet her in the middle of a park. He is transported into another dimension, where he talks with Linnie face to face. She tells him that she had saved him on the bridge before because he is important. Linnie gleefully gives Lee the knife he had obtained and lost in the past. A ringing is emitting from the knife, Linnie explains this to be the knife 'singing' for its "sisters" (other Carriers.)

Linnie informs Lee that he is called "Carrier" because the knife "chose" him when he initially picked it up. However, their session is interrupted when inhabitants of the pocket reality begin approaching, and the pocket begins falling back into the other world. Before Lee leaves, Linnie warns him that important yet terrible things are coming. Linnie apologizes to Lee right before Lee returns to his universe.
