The Whisperwood is a location in Octopath Traveler and the dungeon in H'aanit's Chapter 1. It is a forest located west of S'warkii where hunters come to train.

Story

Shortly before the events of the game, a beast called the Ghisarma takes residence in the Whisperwood after being driven from its home. Enraged, the Ghirsama begins to kill for sport, killing both merchants and animals in the woods as a show of power. H'aanit, a huntress from the nearby town of S'warkii is tasked with hunting the beast. H'aanit slays the Ghisarma and leaves its body to be reclaimed by the forest.
