Shadow [1]

The Homeworld of the Nox was called Al'Katra. Rather than a world, it was better to call it an entire universe condensed into a world.

It was a place where a matter of millions of kilometers was nothing, and the population exceeded any named number in the human language.

A Nox being born wasn't a special occasion. Even though the Nox had no concept of fertility and reproduction, new members of their species would always appear as if they were destined to prosper and expand their influence.

What truly caused a scene was when a Higher Nox was born.

Occasionally, in extremely rare situations, a Nox being was born with consciousness from the start.

Life for these beings was hard. They needed to adapt to the world on their own, and do everything they possibly could to survive in a world where everyone around them wished to consume them.

After all, the Nox grew through cannibalism.
