Shadow world

As it says it is a shadow world (sometimes called a shadow realm).

## Origine:

* The black wolf create the shadow world as his own secret personal place, so he could go there and rest or travel more easily without mortals knowing (it was easier for him to hide from mortals, as well as observe the mortals and the entire world. Plus this world was a hidden place when he wants to relax for a bit).

* **But you wanna know where this shadow world is placed, well here is your answer:**
	+ The shadow world is placed between the **dark realm** **(**hell**)** and the **mortal realm** **(**THE OVERWORLD**)**, the reason for that is course there was a large space between those two worlds and the black wolf filled that place by creating the shadow world/realm, it was a good idea as it not only filled that gap, but also made sure that when the souls that go to hell won't suddenly end in that worlds, so yea creating the shadow world cause make sure that the souls when travel to the dark realm won't get lost, as to enter the shadow world you need to use specific magic or be very unlucky. And the bonus is that when someone is trying forcefully escape or enter the dark realm they need to first break through the shadow world/realm and to do that you really must be very powerful as well you must know what and how you will you do that.

* **Why that large spaces between two realms existed in the first place?:**
	+ Well at first there was no reason for creating this large place, but when creating the realm of hell, the entire realm, was at that time emanating too much negative energy, which is no surprise considering that inside the hell the original body of the leviathan is located. And so the hell was placed much lower than it was originally meant to be, in with it created this large space in between in with later the black wolf filed with the shadow world.

## Look:

* The shadow world is kinda like the void, it is a dark endless space, however, time does exist there, and when you die then you die and your soul would be trapped in the shadow world forever.
* The shadow world is black, grey, dark grey, and light grey in color, it looks like the mortal's realm but everything there is made of shadows, it constantly moving and acting like the entire world was made of some water jelly.

## Shadow **magic**:

* Shadow magic is connected to the shadow world in a mysterious way it says the shadow magic user can use magic without using words by just memorizing the spell and saying it inside its head, but there is more to that, the shadow magic originates from the shadow world, it little complicated, as at that time they still didn't much understand the shadow magic.
* As I said shadow magic is connected to the shadow world and can be used to perform the magic cast without saying the spell out loud, but there is more to that, as to perform the shadow magic you must first enter the shadow world (you must become one with the shadow world to perform the shadow magic). To be more precise long time ago a young witch that was going by the nickname "Varjo" combine the light circle and dark circle in which she was the first mortal to create an entrance to the shadow world in which shadow magic was born.

### **How the shadow magic work:**

* How it works is quite complicated, and not much understandable. What is known about shadow magic is that it allows you to enter the shadow world, as well as to use magic without saying it out loud. Not much know is about how it actually works, even the users of shadow magic at that time didn't understand it, and at the current time, not many people even know about shadow magic. In other words, we may never fully understand how shadow magic worked in their time.

### Is the shadow world dangerous?:

* Yes, the shadow world is very dangerous, as the risk of being inside the shadow world is very big, when you die inside the shadow world, your soul is trapped there forever your soul doesn't to heaven or hell, and the soul has trapped inside the shadow world will slowly decay and turn into a shadow figure. By souls slowly decay I meant that the soul will go/disappear from existence, but that is not the only bad thing that is inside the shadow world, as when many souls that decade, the leftovers of the soul that are left there can combine with the shadow world in which it creates some that should not exist, as the leftovers combine and create monsters that drag you deep into the shadow world so you would become one of them, that's why the god black wolf after learning this, go inside the shadow world and personally eradicate the creatures that were trapped there, after that the shadow world was erased from the cart of history (there is no record of the shadow world existence) so no one would ever again be trapped there.
* And even so, the black wolf did all of that a small part of the knowledge of the shadow magic was left, it is known as the shadow walk, in which the user is entering the shadow world, the only plus of the shadow walk is that this ability only allows the user for a short time enter the world of shadows as well to also leave the shadow world, but since black wolf destroy any records of the shadow world, non of the shadow walk user will even think of trying to open the door to the shadow world and trap someone there, but also the black wolf added something to the shadow world, he added that the users of the shadow wall will be eventually pushed back from the shadow world.

* So yea this is all that is to know about the shadow world or at least what we want you to believe.

## Locations:

* Well, technically the entire shadow realm is one big location that is connected to all the other locations in the overworld, however, there are two hidden locations inside the shadow world one created by the black world and another made by someone else

### **Shadow castle:**

* A shadow castle is a secret place created by the black wolf, right after the creation of the shadow world. He created that place as his secret place, even tho the entire shadow world is his hidden place, but since shadow magic was invented he needed to create that place just to have some peace. The shadow castle the name says is a castle made of shadows, the castle is hard to find as it always changes its location, the only black wolf knew a way to find that castle and he took that secret to his grave.

#### The treasure:

* Information added by the black wolf:
	+ "The treasure of the shadow world that is left there by me, are treasures useful for the shadow magic user, as only they can understand and unleash the true potential of shadow magic. That is why I placed them in the shadow castle the only place in the shadow world that doesn't affect the inhabitant, as this is a challenge that only the true users of shadow magic can pass." - Black wolf.

* The 7 shadow gods were able to find this castle and they only found the book of shadows, but it was enough for them, as they learned how to create a shadow army, and how to leave the shadow world. They tried to find other artifacts in hope of gaining an advantage but then something or someone forcefully pushed them outside the shadow castle and the shadow castle teleported to a different location in the shadow realm. To this day the 7 shadow gods looking for the castle, but with no result.

###### **1st artifact: Cloak of shadow**

* The cloak of shadows is a cloak made of shadows, the cloak gives the user the ability to enter the world of shadows at any moment, enter the shadow castle. The cloak also gives the user the ability to be completely invisible, it hides our magic present and turns you invisible (no one can see or sense you). This artifact is perfect for the self missions, as well the cloak can't be destroyed easily, to destroy the cloak or any of the three artifacts you need to place the artifact in the sun or a place so bride that there is no shadow (for example **haven**).

###### **2nd artifact: Spear of shadow**

* A spear of the shadow is a powerful weapon that allows the user to hit an opponent even if the opponent is behind a normal or magical barrier, the spear will simply pass through that and hit the target. It is a perfect weapon to hurt an opponent with high defense no matter if it is a mortal demi-god or a god, the spear will hit the target and cause damage from 3000-6000.

###### **3rd artifact: Book of shadows:**

* The book of shadows is a powerful and dangerous artifact as it possesses the knowledge of the shadow world, that book knows every secret of the shadow world, as well as every secret of the shadow magic, as the book was written by the black wolf the creator of the shadow world and shadow magic. And the only ones that can read this book are the ones that can use shadow magic.
* The book can show a way how to use shadow magic to its fullest, and how to bend the shadow world to your will. Aswell the book of shadows hides secrets about how to use powerful magic spells and artifacts in a way that normal people wouldn't think could be possible.

* This book contains more than just info about shadow magic, or bending the shadow world and the darkness that resides there. As this book contains info on every **Darkness-Based Abilities**, the knowledge of this has bean specially sealed, and hidden so that only in the presence of the black wold or his succcesor this book will reviel that information.

### Tower of shadows:

* The tower of shadows is a location placed in the deepest part of the shadow world, it is a place where the 7 beings have formed. What they want is simply control over all shadows of the shadow world as well the domination of the other 4 worlds but to do that they need not only an army but also need to eliminate the threat that could stop them, they were even planning on traping of the 13 divine ones, however, they could not think of a way to successfully trap them or even caught them unground, altho they heard that one of them was strapped by something/someone, they even check it and only learned that the beings that trap him were revered as a shadow god, and so the 7 decide to call themself the 7 shadow gods.
* **How the shadow tower came to be:**
	+ **Answer:** Long ago before or during the time when Black wolf learned about the victims of the shadow realm, a group of Shadow magic users build a tower, this tower was meant to be a beacon, a place where all shadow magicians could gather and exchange information with one another, but during its construct, the group was getting affected by the shadow world, and so they tried to leave but something didn't work they couldn't open the portal and leave this world they were trapped there, and slowly the group becomes one with this world, becoming a group knows as 7 shadow gods, the rulers, and overlords of the shadow world (they don't remember their past, as they are no longer the same entity/being).

##### 7 shadow gods:

They are the natural inhabitants of the shadow world, they are creatures made of pure shadow (similar to **Hate Sans**), they can take any form, and the only way to harm them is by using light or light magic.

* Never fight them inside the shadow world, as not only the light magic is weakened, the power of the 7 shadow gods is multiplying, even if Ayden would fight them inside the shadow worlds he would lose (he can't devour the infinity).

###### Powers:

* **Shadow/darkness manipulation;**
* **Conceptual Darkness Manipulation** **;**
* **Darkness Embodiment****;**
* They are capable of gaining the ability to **Manipulate Primordial Darkness**. But they weren't able to achieve it yet, cause of not training hard enought**;**
* **Shapeshifting:** Altho they can shapeshift the for they took is always in color gray;
* **Flexible;**
* **immortal:** As long as their bodies are not under a pure light for longer than 48 hours or are evaporated by the light magic, nothing can harm them nor kill them, even the **Riv-person** weapon that is meant to kill immortals is useless against them. No blasters or any form of laser or beam can harm them, and even if it does harm them do you think that they would just stay and let you hit them?
* **Making weapons:** They can form weapons of shadows, and even though are made of shadow, they are as hard and as strong as the real weapon.
* **Making shadow creatures:** Just like with weapons they can create their soldier, however, there is a bit of difference, as each of the 7 can make only 4thousend of them, and all only one type of soldier, they can't create 2 thousand archer and then 2 thousand knights at the same time, as that exceed their limits. Creating one type of soldier is already putting heavily on their minds, as creating a soldier and making him capable of fighting for them is not an easy task.
* **superhuman physiology:** Altho they are not the strongest physyclie, compared with the other gods. But they are not meant to be underestimated, as they still are strong enough to whoop your ass. They can take hits like a whole contaminate folded down on them, as well they can through mountains, and their speed reflex/reaction time is enough to dodge attacks that move 128times faster than speeding bullets, which is impressive considering that they can't be harmed physicalize but if they do would have a physical form they could take hits like that without a sweat.
