**The Shadow**, also known as the **The Empty**, is a very powerful pre-existential entity who lives in and controls the Empty, a place of nothingness predating God, Death, Darkness, Ayin, Life, Chaos and any other primordial.

## Overview

As it explained to Sandalphon after he died during the apocalypse, the Shadow controls the Empty, and that the dimension existed before any primordial.

When immortal beings die, they go to the Empty where they eternally slumber, allowing the Shadow to do the same. If even one entity charges its state to awake, the Shadow is awakened as well and left in pain until the awakened being is either asleep again or removed from the Empty entirely.

The Shadow told Sandalphon that every immortal being that has ever died was in an eternal sleep inside the Empty.

it was confused that Castiel was awake, according to the Shadow, nothing has ever awakened inside the Empty, Sandalphon did not know why he was awake and suggested that Arc Will, Nicolas and Maryam must have made a deal, but the Shadow disbelieved this and stated that only it has power over the Empty with not even God having any power over the Empty.

The Shadow insisted that it liked and needed sleep, causing Sandalphon to suggest that it get rid of him by sending him back to Earth. The Shadow instead suggested that it throw Sandalphon so deep into the Empty that he could not bother it anymore, but he recognized that the Shadow was bluffing, Sandalphon challenged that the Shadow's plan would not work as the it would have already done it, The Shadow acknowledged that Sandalphon was right, but refused to send him back, telling him that "it's not part of the deal." The Shadow stated that it has gone through all of Sandalphon's mind and knew everything there is about him and claimed that there was nothing back on Earth for him. The Shadow grasped Sandalphon's head and painfully showed him, the vision of his brothers and sister being butchered by Satan, Leviathan escaping, and Lilith freeing Lucifer from his cage.

The Shadow struck down Sandalphon, attempting to convince the angel he was worthless so he would return to sleep. However, Sandalphon refused the entity's demands and declared that no matter what the Shadow does, he will fight it for eternity if he was not released. The Shadow angrily denied him demands as Sandalphon continued to demand for his release from the realm, finally The Shadow accepted Sandalphon's demands and send him back on earth.

## Trivia

* The Shadow claimed that its true form induces complete insanity, even to angels.
* Azrael claims that the Shadow is not as powerful as God or Ayin, which can be supported by the fact that God has already resurrected Gabriel from The Empty and himself has prevented the Shadow from invading Earth, however, this is due to the fact that in both cases the Shadow didn't try to stop it as it spends most of its time sleeping and totally indifferent to anything else, thus, the actual power of the Shadow is not known.,
* Azrael indicates that the Shadow may be the embodiment of the Empty itself. This is supported by the fact that whenever the Shadow is mentioned by other names, it and The Empty are always treated as the same thing.
