Its form grows, now eight feet tall towering over you with its shifting eyes and skin. This monster you have birthed shifts into a mixture of your fears, ever-changing. Praying on people with a weak will and soul. Everyone seems to have a different name for this monster. Its name as ever-changing as its body.
