Have you ever thought of dark Sylestis arising to take down the living Sylestis? Well, your in the right place!

Notes: There are sections in the cave for certain Sylestis that live in different habitats and places.
Shadow Sylestis know where the cave is, but avoid it because they think nobody lives in it.

Zolnixis and Bulboris ran though the forest, Nyketries and Ryoris were flying through the sky chatting, and even Sylvorpa and Kelpari got along under the water. Although everything was peaceful, a certain Lupora knew there was darkness to come. This Lupora gathered every Sylesti they could find, and brought them all to a cave, which had plenty of water sources and food for carnivores and herbivores to live. Some of the Sylesti got tired of living in the cave, and being bossed around by a lowly Lupora. 'This place is dumb! There's no danger out there!' A rude Draeyl said, glaring at the Lupora who was sitting on a rock. 'There is danger out there, unlike you, I have a good sense for danger.' The Lupora replied calmly, angering the protester more. 'Fine then! I'll go out there myself, I'll show you there's no danger.' The Draeyl said walking towards the tunnel that led out of the cave, along with multiple others who were tired of being there. 'don't say I didn't warn you.' The Lupora said then went back to watching over the rest. Nobody knows what happened to that Draeyl, but rumor has it that it died from the danger the Lupora sensed. Nobody pays any mind to it and lives in the cave peacefully, hoping for it to stay that way.

Chapter 1
'Mommmmm! I don't wanna go to bed!' A young Sylvorpa kit whined 'Come on, Takoma, you don't want the Shadows to get you, do you? You can play with your Zolnixi friend tomorrow.' The kits mother said, nudging the kit, Takoma, along. 'Fine, fine, but only because the Shadows are scary!' Takoma said walking into the Sylvorpa's den reluctantly. 'Good night, Lilac.' The Lupora said to the kits mother. 'Be careful out there, nobody wants you hurt.' Lilac said nodding to the Lupora. 'I'll be fine.' They replied and watched as Lilac followed the kit. The Lupora went to the entrance of the cave, laying down on a rock near it. Thankfully no Shadows came around this part, at least from what the Lupora knew. Since all of the other tribes didn't know how the Shadows acted or their abilities, the Lupora had to keep watch for them, just in case any came around. Nights are usually uneventful, but this time the Lupora noticed something odd. There was a Sylesti, they looked injured. The Lupora got up and started walking over to them, but realized it might be a trap. So the Lupora ducked beneath a ledge and walked more slowly towards the Sylesti. Once the Lupora got close enough, they realized it was the Draeyl that left weeks ago. There was nobody else with him though. 'Zap?' The Lupora said, glaring at the Draeyl, Zap. Zap looked back at the Lupora. 'You were right... I shouldn't have went out there..' Zap said looking down at the ground. 'Your not a Shadow right?' The Lupora asked backing away a bit. 'Where's the others that were with you? This isn't a trap.. right?' Zap shook his head once the Lupora finished their sentence. 'All the others died.. They got in my way and saved me..'
