The Gnawing Dark
Jaxhyde , in his light and grace, did not create the Human race with the ability to navigate the dark of the night. They traveled and worked in the daylight hours and the night was for rest, safe in their homes and by their fires. But there are places beneath the bright human settlements that are always in shadow. Caves, tunnels, and caverns, which the sun does not light, a darkness that fires and torches cannot pierce. Humans had an inherent fear of these dark places, and that fear preyed on them, gnawed at their souls, and became manifest.
The Gnawing Dark stalks those tunnels now, a creeping, prowling entity of primordial fear and unending hunger. It crouches in the shadows beyond human lights, watching, waiting, picking off those foolhardy enough to venture beyond the safety of the torches.
