Kiki was speechless. His eyes were fixed on the thing in front of him, and he couldn't move a muscle.
It felt like the air had been sucked out of his lungs; he wanted to take a step, but his body wouldn't obey. His gaze scanned the massive silhouette rising out of darkness.
The creature stood over ten meters tall. Its entire body was made of a dense, viscous black fluid. It looked as if it had been born from shadows themselves. Darkness dripping from its surface burned and rotted ground wherever it touched.
Dozens of goat heads protruded randomly from its torso, each facing a different direction. Their eyes were pitch black, yet a strange, eerie awareness glimmered within them. Some were screaming, some whispering, and others simply stared in silence.
Thick, slimy tentacles wrapped around nearby trees, ripping them from their roots and pulling them into its body, where they dissolved completely, leaving no trace behind.
