Northstar Vale this night ain't for the holy man with the holy plan

the shadow found themself returned to the vale that had become a temporary home to her small, budding group. temporary, because the voidsent could not bear to think it otherwise; it did not feel right the way a home should. and somehow, she knew that one day she would find a place that did. but not today, not here. so this was to be their autumnal stronghold, a verdant citadel nestled amongst stony giants. the shadow liked it well enough. she made her way toward the semi-permanent home of the skyrock, where it oft lay while she traversed the surrounding lands. paranoia took hold of her whenever she had gone too long without laying eyes upon the cursed thing, drove her feet to it even against her own will. now was not one such time, but the shadow wished to avoid any loss of control, so bitterly she went to her anchor.
