*My right forearm begins to burn in response to Lapay's actions, but my mind is on the mysterious message, and on Lapay's words only a moment ago. I can't help but wonder how I could be expected to lead when I am incapable of even understanding this...this...
That's when it strikes me, and I can sense the irritation of the entity turning into something as close to happiness and satisfaction as I have ever felt from it. I was correct in assuming that it was attempting to communicate with me. The implications of this new revelation are unclear, however, for they suggest that this creature is not simply a dormant source of power within my being. Instead, it suggests that it is an entirely separate being, bordering on sentience itself. It feeds on my hatred, and in return, grants me an even greater source of power to draw on as my own reserves deplete. As I stand there contemplating this turn of events, something resembling flickers of deep red electricity begins to dance across my body - a physical manifestation of the entity's presence. The flickers disappear a moment later as I bid the creature to be silent. A smile once again forms on my face. The Shadow State has indeed granted me a power beyond my wildest dreams.
It's all so clear now.
It has a name.
Hade.*
