==Full Text==
In a sea-cave not far from the village, the Shadow and her shadow planned the next stage of their infiltration. 
“This will be delicate, my friend,” she intoned. “You will have to play your part to the letter.”
The beast purred, as if somehow understanding his companion’s words. The shadow gave the beast a tender smile, then turned to the other figure in the room. His large, feathered hat hid his face, but it did nothing to mask the soft snoring that gave away his unconsciousness.
“Tell me, Captain,” the shadow began as she moved to a large rock. “Did you know what it was you were ferrying? Did you know she was so special?” She chuckles bitterly. “Or did you think she was just a witch, like the kind that haunts the dreams of all simple men?”
The Shadow set a few items down on the rock before she turned and leaned against it. “I’ve met her kind before - such rare creatures. Always alone, yet always... wanted. Each as unique as they are similar. And yet... they are always loathe to tap into that true power of theirs. That light that burns the cankers off of a soul with the same intensity of a forest fire.” She sighs wistfully. “They are a sight to behold, though many would argue that they are more valuable in pieces instead of as a whole.”
“I disagree with this. I think they are much more valuable when they fall,” she hisses. “When they fall, that soul-burning light becomes hotter and darker than Hellfire, and it consumes. Not just the cankers, mind, but the entire soul. Oh, it is a sight to behold...” The Shadow gazes up at the ceiling of the cave, lost in thought. As the beast rumbles a second time, she comes back.
“It isn’t an easy thing, making a star-touched being fall... at least, it isn’t easy to achieve head on. No... it must be subtle, and it must be a doubt-laden thing. For in doubt... there is fear, and fear is a potent thing.”
The Shadow looks at the beast, then to the Captain. “You know your part, my friend. Together, we will sow the seeds of doubt not only in the girl, but in all of them.” She walks over and places a hand on the beast’s crest. “I’ll see you soon.”
The beast scoops the Captain up in his claws and soars out of the cave, leaving the Shadow to plot in darkness.
