In the middle of a forest, Small camps could be seen. These were the camps created by humans. Near the forest was a small settlement filled with multiple Gnolls. Each one of them was doing their daily work. A Gnoll kid was playing when he came across a shadow.
He looked around and was confused; he couldn't find any object this Shadow might belong to. He approached it and tried to touch it, but what happened next shocked him. The Shadow moved; he jumped back in fright, then looked at the place again.
He scratched his head with a dumb look. He looked around with his tiny eyes but could not see the Shadow anywhere. He got bored and decided to return. Unknown to him, his Shadow was bigger than it used to be. It then separated from him and entered the Shadow of another gnoll; this Gnoll was wearing armor. He was a soldier; he appeared in front of his house and was about to open it when he felt uneasy.
