Even in the constant cacophony of life that filled the Oerwoud Hadama sensed the approach of another to the shrine. It was an unexpected presence but one he knew well, and so he did not move from his prayers until he had finished. In the end he lit a cone of incense on a plate of volcanic glass. The floral scent was dizzyingly strong as the smoke curled up within the little shrine, and with a final nod to the altar he stepped out to join the Halovian hunter amidst the bursting foliage of Flowerbirth in Caido's most untamed wilderness.
"Sah," he rumbled in welcome, a genuine warmth in his eyes as he looked his friend over. "What brings you here?" A strange place to find the man, and Hadama had not thought to find anyone else walking the jungle so soon after LongNight.
Before he could ask more a soft hiss drifted from nearby, and a faint chill lent a clamminess to the humid air. A black-and-purple Void Viper slithered through the shadows, twining around a terrified squirrel that struggled in vain against the embrace of the serpent. Emerald eyes focused on the sight and his jaw tightened, but Hadama rested a gently restraining hand on Sah's shoulder as he studied the interaction without attempting to stop it.
Void Vipers (Common): Once inquisitive Hanging Snakes, touched by the void, transform into Void Vipers. Their slender bodies now bear patterns that seem to absorb light, making them almost imperceptible in the shadowy depths of the woods. Instead of curiously exploring, they now slither with a purpose, seeking to entwine themselves around unsuspecting wanderers and imbuing them with a void-touched presence.
