The shadows stared at Sunny, and Sunny stared at the shadows.
After a while, the situation became a bit awkward.
Sunny shifted a little, then hesitantly asked:
"Uh… are you guys not going to do anything?"
The shadows did not react, remaining as motionless and quiet as they had been from the start.
As a matter of fact, he didn't see them move or show any sign of life at all. In that regard, they were even more lifeless than his Echo had been here in the Sea of Soul. Sunny scratched his head.
His initial fear was slowly disappearing. At first, he was scared out of his wits, but more so from being startled than from feeling an actual threat. This was his Soul Sea, after all. Very few things could harm him here.
Sunny was pretty sure that the shadows were not capable of doing anything, let alone attacking him. They seemed more like manifestations of some weird facet of his Aspect rather than actual beings. As such, they weren't dangerous.
