Damon glanced around the area—it was dark. The ground was surprisingly dry. No… actually, that wasn't the surprise.
What caught him off guard was that the darkness wasn't as deep as he expected. Maybe the others couldn't tell, but Damon—who viewed the world through shadows—could sense the difference.
It was simple.
The shadows were more vibrant. The darkness felt fainter.
That could only mean one thing: there was a light source nearby. Maybe even a natural one.
He shook his head. He wasn't sure if his assessment was accurate… or if he was just hungry again.
He poured all the attribute points he'd recently gained into his mana, then sacrificed them to feed his shadow.
His hunger was now manageable.
The others walked slowly into the gloom, Sylvia at the front, acting as the guide—the Seer of the party.
That said, the ones actually leading were none other than Xander and Leona. The two of them were more durable, with tank-like builds. They made up the frontline.
