Upon the rough, rocky path of the forest bed walked a dark shadow covered with huge leaves all over. A pair of blue eyes were visible, the iciest of the hue shining in them. The shadow lingered forward until it came out in the light, getting on the way that led to the premises of the Mawt palace.
The guards patrolling outside the doors stopped to look at the strange creature that was slowly approaching them. They couldn't understand what it was, it doesn't seem like a human. Maybe it was a wild animal covered in mud and leaves? They straightened their bows and splinters, making shooeing sounds but the thing kept moving and moving. A hand came out from somewhere under the leaves and stood up in the air, the palm facing the guards. It was as if whoever it was, was trying to stop them from attacking.
"What in the Lord's name is it?" one of them narrowed his eyes as the thing came to stop right before them.
