As Chocolate Bark Cookie's heart grew heavier with each passing day, a silent specter made its choice to become his very shadow. Ever since, the Pet has stood by the dragon slayer's side in battle. It slips unseen through the chaos, taking blows in his place, and shielding him without hesitation. At times, it wears a cape like his, weaving through foes to sow confusion in the midst of battle. But perhaps calling its devotion a shadow is a disservice. For in the darkest hour, even a shadow can become a guiding light.
