You were being mischievous as usual. A bunch of black cars sped past you, and you could feel that some action was about to happen. What Hunter didn’t love a good showdown?

So, you masked yourself with zen and followed them. Eventually, they led to the Gordeau Desert. Curiously, you perched yourself far enough away on a cliff to observe the situation.

Are those the shadow beasts? Who were they fighting?

You looked down to see a group sitting down and playing cards, noting a spider tattoo on one of them. Oh well, best to ignore them. You looked back over at the fight.

“Hello there! Might I ask who you are?”

He spotted you? How’d he get up here so fast? He was just with the rest of that group!

His tone was friendly, but you could sense the danger beneath it. It was Shalnark of the Phantom Troupe.
