The Shadow Monsters of the River

'...' Stark didn't even budge when he noticed the dozens of pair of white eyes looking at him from beyond the mist, it was a rather strange feeling, but it didn't scare Stark in the slightest, quite the opposite actually.

What would be the point of acting surprised anyway, he had already killed one of them quite easily, so there was no need to fear anything.

In the end, Stark knew he was going to win, the real question was: how much time would it take him?

'Perception...' he mumbled while looking at the bears.
