The Elders' Conspiracy

In a secret location within the Shadow clan's territory, the clan's elders were engaged in a discussion deeply entwined with Ethan's involvement.

They all felt that Sherry, as the newly appointed High Priest, had grown too close to Ethan.

They believed Ethan's influence over the Shadow clan was becoming overwhelmingly significant, and they desired to eliminate his sway over their affairs.

"Ethan's strength is indeed formidable, and it's true that he was instrumental in helping our Shadow clan navigate past crises. However, we cannot allow him to dictate the course of our clan," one of the elders stated, his voice tinged with a mix of respect and wariness.

"Sherry is not a fitting High Priest. She hasn't thoroughly contemplated her role or how to successfully lead the Shadow clan out of our current predicament." 

This was declared by another elder, his voice laced with frustration and anger.
