A traveler walks through the woods, the darkness surrounding him. The darkness paid him no attention, for he was just another traveler, but not all the darkness wanted to stay passive. However this traveler had a simple weapon. One that could slay any bit of darkness around him. A bit of darkness approaches, it's cold form hissing behind his neck. The traveler doesn't flinch, insted, he pulls out a simple lantern and lights it with a match. The surrounding darkness shrieks. "THE LIGHT! THE LIGHT! O CREATURE OF LIGHT! MERCY! MERCY!" The voice of darkness sounded like a knife dragging across the floor, like a thousand voices have been stitched together. "LET YOUR KIND HAVE MERCY! EXTINGUISH THE LIGHT! THE LIGHT!" The traveler does so, but not because of mercy or being told to, he just wanted to mess with them, for they were beasts, creatures of shadows that come out at night, for the night was their home, like how people lived through day. They say that they were nothing, something to fear, something to avoid, something to keep away. Or so everyone was told.
