A Strange Kodan is standing still and talking to herself, at the crossroad between Boreal Pass, Fallen Ruins and Eaglewatch Rise. If you approach her, she falls and dies.

- Strange Kodan: Stay back! It speaks to me, and me alone!
- Strange Kodan: What? No! NO! I wasn't done! They had so much left to say!
- Interacting with her corpse
- Corpse: She's been dead for quite some time.

A message is carved under the Kodan Shipwreck by a Strange Kodan. You can read the Curious Carving after he finishes.
- When approached
- Strange Kodan: Please, don't look until I've finished.
- If you get close before carving is done
- Strange Kodan: NOT YET!
- Once he has finished carving
- Strange Kodan: There. It is done. (Curious Carving appears)
- Strange Kodan: Do you like it? I think it is my best work.
- Strange Kodan: Why do you look at me that way? Is something wrong?
- Strange Kodan: The words came to me on the wind. Whisper-quiet, but impossible to ignore.
- Interacting with carving
- Curious Carving: I waited for <Character name> to turn their back.
Then I tore out their throat.

A circle of kodan stand outside the Cavern of Lost Sons. In front of them is a "precious" book that they try to persuade you to read it. While reading the book, they disappear in a flash of light.
- Logger: Would you like to read our book?
- Logger: I think you would like our book.
- Ice Fisher: Please read to us. I cannot see.
- Ice Fisher: The book is all we have left. Take it, please.
- Kodan Guard: Is somebody there? Please, read the book.
- Kodan Guard: Please, take this book. Take it far away from here.
- Interacting with the book
The words whisper to us.
The wind takes us.
Now the words whisper to you.
And the wind will take you.
It will consume you.
As it consumed us.
- Talking to the kodan
- Kodan Guard: I think you would like our book.

A Strange Kodan stands entranced before a small Idol of Jormag, at the Whisperwind Grotto, surrounded by a ring of dead and frozen kodan.
- Standing near the Strange Kodan
- Strange Kodan: I would never think of leaving. Why would you say that? We are friends, and friends do not abandon each other.
- Strange Kodan: No. No. You speak in riddles. Rhymes with no meter. Your voice is the air, I breathe it to live.
- Strange Kodan: The others, they heard the whispers but they did not listen. They tried - they tried so hard. But time ran out.
- Strange Kodan: There is peace in the ice. The quiet of the snow. The only voice I hear is the one in me.
- Talking to the Strange Kodan
- Strange Kodan: Your voice...you believe it is still yours. But the whispers say otherwise. The whispers tell me to stay.
- After destroying the idol
- Strange Kodan: Your voice is different from the others. How long have I been here?
- Strange Kodan: Koda... My brothers and sisters... The words held us. The whispers. I nearly joined them.
- Strange Kodan: I must return to the village and speak with a shaman. My brethren deserve the proper rites. Thank you.

A kodan Quiet Logger can be found south of the spike north of Shrine of the Vigilant Eagle with the bodies of several people around him. As you speak to him, the bodies turn into trees. He carries two dirty cleavers.
