The Shadow Clan's Predicament

The morning after the quelling of the Shadow clan rebellion, Ethan awoke early. 

He scanned his surroundings, noticing the absence of Sherry, which struck him as slightly odd.

Ethan began his search for Sherry within the Shadow clan's territory. 

Each member of the Shadow clan he encountered expressed their gratitude to him. 

It was clear to all that Ethan had been instrumental in saving them.

"We thank you, for without you, Dart's rebellion would have succeeded!"

"We express our gratitude. The great Power of Shadow will bless you. It will certainly remember your act of saving the Shadow clan."

"We are indebted to you. The Hero Spirits of our great Shadow clan will surely bestow their blessings upon you. You will undoubtedly be able to enter Valhalla again."

Faced with such gratitude from the Shadow clan members, Ethan felt somewhat embarrassed.
