As he reached towards the hand taped with claws he felt the sensation of flesh beneath his own. He was in fact there. No figment of a schizophrenic imagination. He smiled. He knew the monster didn't enjoy this. Being touched. So once Adrian had obtained that confermation he pulled his hand away before bowing in thanks.

"Thank you. I apologize if I happened to make you feel uncomfortable." It was funny. Usually he took joy in it. Creeping people out with an unsettling vibe. Sleeping in coffins and asking for jokes. He smirked. Shaking his head. Hiding his identity beneath a hat and a shade of hair.

"Tell me. I am curious. Have you killed anyone? Film must be collected." He looked down at the ground. Dirt and pine. Leaves and dead space of silence. It was home to him." I would enjoy to know what you do on a day to day. Perhaps I can show you what I do. Though..seeing it would be rather difficult. Since your not a reaper yourself."

His question of death was honest. He wondered if this beast of the woods killed to protect its home. Blood dripping from those talons at some point. A lumberjack? A hunter perhaps? Whatever it was they kept to their job. He found it just as odd that it weld a lantern. Despite it being covered in shadow. It hid its form perfectly behind shadow. As if it manipulated the shadows to hide its form.

"How have you come to be? Were you at one point..human? Or have you always been a guardian to these woods?"

Once his hand is released does the Beast pull it back. Letting it disappear within the shadows that surrond him. If reaching out to make sure that the Beast was indeed there then there was not many complaints that he could give. It was better then the viloence that would usually be directed his way.

" I have been around those have met a unfortunate end "

Not a direct yes or no. But a confirmation that there has been a time where his claws were stained in blood, dripping upon the dirt floor of the woods. Wither it has been for just cause or the creature that lurks within the shadows decided it was time for more then simply watching from afar.

" I tend to the trees. Though I do not imagine it be interesting from one who does not live within the woods "

There wasn't excatly a lot to do within the woods. But the creature seems to make do with what he could. Head tilting curiously to one side at hearing that it would be difficult to show as he is not a reapear himself. Morbid curiousity is making him want to ask, to show what the other is capable of doing. It is not often he gets to hear or meet a reapear.

Silence hangs in the air from the Beast. The shadows shifting and twisting around the silhouette as if cast from a fires shadow.The light that serves the Beasts eyes flickering as if they were a wavering candle.

" I can not say. They are such old memories. I came to be just as anyone else would, I was lost within the the Unknown. The task of becoming a guardian followed suit "

"Beast of the woods?" His eyes lowered in thought. How dubiously strange. But he took it for how it was. Looking at a creature as tall as this. If he could feel dread like he used to he'd be expressing it. But he found this being unique and unlike anything he's seen in his line of work as he shut his eyes and breathed in the forest air.

A guardian of the forest..a elemental perhaps? No. He would keep it the way it was from respect as he looked around." I take it you guard the forest. Keep it's trees safe and plentiful. It's a shame how people don't appreciate the serene beauty of the wilds." It was truly a shame. Walks at night were ones he enjoyed the most. The moon the only form of light around him to light the way. He could barely sleep anymore. The day the only time he could sleep was in a coffin in a stone basement. The home for the dead. Six feet under. When not labotomizing the dead. He enjoyed life for what it was. No people. Just him and the forest around him.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." If the creature focused closely he could he his body was pale. As much as he breathed and moved. His skin was cold and colorless as if he was dead. The countless scars that tangled around fingers and neck like he was decapitated. "I suppose I could make conversation if The Beast is willing to contribute in such a thing?" He asked. His black fingernails moving his hair away from his eyes. The lantern somewhat blinding as he focused on his eyes. The white eyes of something inhuman. He wondered what his memories held. What his soul is like. Could he bring him back..? No..he couldn't do that. He respected a being that takes pride in what so many others don't. But was this really there? His hand gently reached out for the silhouetted hand." May I..? Forgive me..at times my mind plays games..i merely wish to know if your..really here."

To that the Beast nods his head. It was truth, though only partcial. If one were to be picking out the specific details, he guarded the depths of the woods. That is where he keeps a more sharper eye out for ones who wander to far. Guarding the rest of the woods ended up being an extentsion to what his main job entails.

" Not many do. A terrible shame, a walk through the woods may help ease their minds "

It sounded that the silhouette was being honest, or as much as he could be, with his words. The place was not normally so deathly silent. Depending on where they are one could hear the rustling of leaves, the swaying of branches and the occasional movement of animals scurrying around. It provided an atmosphere that only the wilds may provide. It could be either calming or nervewrecking, depending who it is.

The shadow ends up thinking of the trees with pale barks lit by moonlight when looking to Adrian. There is the faint sound of a tree shifting as the Beast moves. Turning the lanterns light away from the other's eyes and away from the silhouette that holds it tight.

" I would not mind continuing the conversation. "

His gaze quickly falling from the other to his hand that reaches out to the silhouettes. The living shadow is tempted to back away. On one hand he is sure that Adrian is getting terribly close to the few truths of the Beast. On the other hand, most physical interactions ended up badly. There's hesitances, enough that he does not move for a good few moments before responing back with cutting the distances short. Hand held out to Adrians, offering to take. Though it looks like the shape of a hand, each digit is tipped with claws. Something that is fitting for the creature who bares uncertainty on excatly they are.

"Alive.? No. Unalive or what the people consider 'Undead'. Yes." The pale man nodded his head. Cold bright unnatural green eyes stared at the unforeseen figure with intrest. A curious figure with no face. Only silhouette to complete the conversation.

"You have such a unique form. A form I cant pin point. Tell me..are you a demon?" He had experiences. Connections with more than just the underworld. He had connections from hell that made him feard. A retired neverending life of death and decay. But this being made him want to learn what went on in it's head. He hummed.

"No..no you are no demon. Your something else. I know demons. You hold no energy of one. It's as if I'm talking to a tree. I feel it." He tried to put his finger on it. Playing guessing games. He had his own madness to attend to. Loss. Pain. Eternal youth with no chance of ever resting. All thanks to the grace of god." I am what most mortals would call a grim reaper. A collector of souls. Memories of thoes who die..you may call me Adrian.." a bow. Cordial. Polite. He smiled. He had so many questions. Ones that wonder closely to weather hes talking to a deer or a actual creature. Sometimes..he can't tell.

Green eyes would meet blindingly bright white lights. Yet theres a feeling that it couldn't be just that, colorless void staring back. The gaze unwavering as one might think that he does not need to blink.

Unique form? That earns a curious head tilt from the looming shadow. Antler head moving towards the side as that same unblinking gaze continues to fall upon the stranger. He would not call himself unique in appearance, for he has heard of other creatures that cling towards the shadows. Ones that bare resemblances to living silhouettes.

" You are not far off "

The Beast soon admits, though he continues to refuse to be out right with such information. As it is, the stranger sounds like he is on the right train of thought.

If there had been ears they would of been perked up at hearing ' collector of souls '. Now the creature that remains within the shadows could not help but to have a spark of curiousity. Yet his grip on the lantern remains tight, the sound of metal creaking betrays such action.

" I am the Beast of the woods "

A direct answer, one that is rare that comes from the creature. His head straightening back upon his shoulders as he gives back a short bow. Wither this was a reflection to being met with being polite or to the fact that this stranger does not seem to plan to bring harm to the woods.

@shlnlgamls:

"You bare truth behind your eyes. Many faces of the damned. Tell me. Have you lived as long as I?"

Theres silence from the silhouette listening to the strangers words. The lights that serve as his eyes go unblinking as he stares. Letting the grip upon the lantern he carries tighten, the metal creaking in response as the cloak that he wears moves along with the soft yet chilling breeze.

" It sounds that you are not unfamiliar of such things "

No, the silhouette will not confirm or deny his words. The first he could agree with, there is no use in hiding such bright eyes that seemingly burn with ugly truths. Yet the second part is what the Beast has decided to keep silent of. Though he knows that the shadows hide him, the lanterns light kept away from himself, he does not like to be seen.

" That would depend on what is considered alive "

As their group grows in size the more bases appear all over the depths appear at every corner which include a schematic, building in the dark has been tough the Yiga are breaking their backs to find materials, others sent to mine Zoanite. Building in the dark was tough until the discovery of a technique called Auto build was discovered! the ability to whip things up in an instant. Kohga wants it.

Kohga spends their day in the bases lingering there inspecting the Zonite like it's gold that is brought back and any little thing that might prove useful to them they do have injuries. He's sent out two of their foot soldiers to go mine Zonite they have vehicles now with the Yiga symbol on them cruising through the depths is a piece of cake.

Driving through the darkness is two Gloomdredges but one thing has been added it's a Brightbloom Seed. What an easy target for the Beast to stalk and get a closer look at. Vroom Vroom.

" Ugh we've been driving for awhile? why do those Zonai dispensers have to be so spread out."

" Stop whining! we'll find them. "

The Beast would watch a far as the ones who fall down into the depths start to adapt to the surrondings. The Zonite, as he has heard them called, starting to be used for various devices. More so one's that make it easier to move around in the pitch black depths. The shadow would be a liar if he said that he did not hope for one to end up stumbling off their device as they maneuver through the land.

With the addition of the Brightblood Seed placed upon the devices to allow the two to see through the dark, it has become a lot easier for the Beast to follow them through the shadows. Though it was not the sun nor the sunlight, he still makes sure to avoid being caught in the flowers light. There is no trust to the things that provide light.

Instead he keeps distance away , not to far and not to close. Hearing the two complain about dispensers being to far spread out. Antler head tilting curiously to the side hearing this. By the direction their heading he is sure that they will end up meeting one of the creatures of the depths soon enough.

’ meet my executioner. ’ [ he's talking about Sooga]

The tree like silhouette tilts to the side spotting the one standing next to the Yiga leader. Blank gaze falling towards the blade that hangs against his hip. One that he could easily tell that is capable of cutting down more then trees.

" A fitting role "

The creature soon admits as his mind wonders to what tree they would make. Would it be imposing? Would it be one that so stubbornly clings to the living? The morbid curiousity that holds the Beast couldn't help but to wonder as the fire within the lantern crackles against the silence.

#topbanna8 #[ literally anyone/everyone beasts meets first time: yo what kind of tree would you be? ]

’ when a lioness has children, she stops making love to the lion. the lion gets jealous. sometimes so jealous that he eats the children. you’d think this would upset the lioness, far from it. they make love again as if the children never existed. ’

Deep bellow Hyrule, the depths that sunlight never reaches, is not the place that the shadow clad creature would usually be seen at. Wither that be due to the place barely getting anyone to fall down to reach it and survive or that the trees are not the usual ones that he tends to. None the less, the shadow moves through out the darkness. There are trees to attend to afterall.

What he wasn't expecting was someone there, someone surviving in the depths. Curiousity has the shade lingering in areas where he could spot them at a distance. Watching them collect the plants the spew smoke and sometimes the bomb like flowers. Interesting...

The Beast kept to himself, away from the steadly growing group. Watching with some sort of curiousity on how they plan to survive down here. Though he does not hold out hope, not for their survival, but the possiblity of new trees being added to the depths. The ones that the Beast is much more familiar with then the trees with viens of red.

@sonorusgloom Kohga had never imagined that this is what that giant hole would lead down to with that they once lived such a life of luxury and sending their lackeys to do everything. Well they knew one thing though and it's that giant hole was something of an entrance which Ganon could enter this world and bring about their ending of the world plan. It's an endless hell hole of never ending darkness and at every turn there's some sort of creature that resides here. Their first encounter was with the freakiest creature he'd ever seen! a one eyed scaled sort of grotesque demonic frog? thing? with a glowing eye with rocks on their back that sucks up everything! but the fearless leader of the Yiga clan fears NOTHING THEY WERE NOT SCARED! they just --- poofed away from it real fast. Now it's been sometime they've lost track. They can feel they've changed now having to work things out for themselves they've had to learn this dark place they had to figure out how to survive acknowledge the gloom covered creatures lurking at every corner of this terrible place without bananas.... nothing grows here just bomb flowers and some some sort of purple flower and a mushroom that creates smoke it's proven useful! oh yes he's collected a lot of that.... he'd had many ventures in the endless darkness that alone effected them in the extended time alone. He used to be just silly and go lucky and not what one would expect of a dooms day cult leader. In their time alone, so they think. That is until one day two of their lackeys stumble down the hole and land on top of them knocking them to the ground, had a very heartfelt reunion much joy expressed now seeing their master is alive. Now with those two at their side then soon enough others join them, bases are made the other Yiga have begun learning about this place. What Kohga does not know, they were never alone there was..... something out there, a certain something with a lantern that he'd never noticed somehow.

With a little poof of smoke they appear revealing themselves to indeed not be a tree but no other then one of many of Kohga's lackeys. The goal was that hopefully Link would venture this far out but seems not time to abandon ship.

" come on everybody!"

Several other Yiga poof into existence this was not a good idea this was not a good idea at all, it was not even their idea it was the idea of another Yiga but they know knows they should just stay in Hyrule, spares them one last glance curious then poofs away with a little poof of smoke along with the others.

The Beast moves his lantern away from them. Letting the light fall upon the one's that are near by. Yet the Beast continues to stand, staring down at the one in front of him that he'd been speaking to. There was most likely a goal on why all of them are out here but what ever it is, thats no concern for the shade.

Theres only a short nod from the Beast as the Yiga spares a glance back to him. It was a good move, the Beast wouldn't of been giving out another warning. Giving one at all was rare enough.

The trees holds the remains of autumn. The warm hues of red and orange scattered among the trees leaves as yellow breaks through the folliage. The last breath of fall before winter makes its appearance to blow past the leaves, leaving bare branches that stretch across the sky.

There is beauty of nature within these woods, there are no animals that could be spotted this far. No birds singing to their little lungs out, no foxes that would dart out from the bushes, and no sound of crickets rustling within the leaves. Instead, the only sound that could be heard is the sound of the branches of the trees rustling from the occasional breeze.

Yet, there is a feeling of being watched. The sound of someone, something, moving with the ever shifting trees. Watching from the shadows towards the stranger who has gone deeper and deeper into the woods.

Thank you, @sonorusgloom... Thanks to you, Ganondorf has been sealed inside the Evil Realm! Thus, peace will once again reign in this world... for a time

The darkness didn't concern her.

That wasn't to say she liked it, either. However, she could use her magic as a small light, if just so she could see clearly. The counsel would have never let her hear the end of it, should they have found out she wasn't in her room. What they didn't know wasn't going to hurt them.

Though brave, the princess was still unnerved, just a little. No one had resolve of steel all the time.

Yet she'd continue on, taking note of everything she saw. The trees held their own, mystical beauty. This was different than the Lost Woods. She didn't hear the cheerful tune of spirits singing. The adventurer in her demanded she press forward, so she did. As long as she was back at the castle by morning, the counsel would never find out about this.

@yigahideout9:

[ foot solider #545] " why do we disguise ourselves as trees? it's not for you to know!! we have our reasons."

The Beast just ends up staring at the tree with the foot solider disguised as the trees. To judge the disguise, it was not that bad. If someone were to pass by they wouldn't have thought that it was anything but a tree.

Though, due to nature of Beasts work. Closer inspection tells just enough that this is someone hiding as one of the trees. The lantern that the Beast carries with him creaks as its raises above him, the light glaring down at the ' tree ' he's standing in front of.

" You may kepe your reasons. I am not curious enough to wonder about why. But I advise that you do not disguise yourself this far deep into the woods. "
