Just as everyone stood there contemplating, the mouth of the valley suddenly collapsed inward with a heavy rumble, and from deep within the broken ground, a behemoth began to rise slowly into view.
Its size was monstrous, nearly reaching the height of the valley edges, easily over seventy meters tall, its black fur swallowing light while demonic runes crawled faintly across its body, and its eyes burned a deep, unnatural red.
For a brief moment, no one moved as their gaze instinctively shifted behind it, and what they saw made their expressions stiffen slightly.
There was nothing left inside the valley depths, not a single wolf remaining, only torn ground and scattered remains, making it clear that whatever this beast had become, it had devoured all its subordinates.
The beast lowered its head slightly before releasing a heaven rending howl that tore through the air and pressed against everything in its path.
