Noosha/Introduction
When one became separate from the darkness, one does not recall clearly. It is...unusual and one is not sure there are words to describe being part of the whole. But one remembers experiences in this new skin.
This one seems to have inhabited a young Spotted Hyena named Noosha, the daughter of a hunter and a tinker. Once this one merged, Noosha...changed. Apparently, she had been an affectionate, emotional child who loved nothing more than the arts. This one gleaned these impressions from the lamentations of her vessel's parents
A group of Skunk scholars studied this one and shook their heads, saying she had been been "infected by shadows" and there was "no known cure" for it, though they could bind the 'shadow' to the 'shell' and prevent it from destroying its host and moving on.
