I am a creature of the shadows, a spirit of the night – never fully seen, but always there. I am known by many names, but my presence is one & the same. I am a skilled shapeshifter and you may see me as a hornless goat or even a stray cat.

The story of my life began near the cradle of humankind where people revered me as a sinister omen and a sign of things to come. I have seen the dawn of time, and I travelled to many faraway lands. Wherever I went, a putrid stench followed and you can still hear my rattling chain dragging on the ground.

Now, I call the islands of pearl-white sand and azure waters my home. Here, I roam the dark and wreak havoc on those who are wicked. Do you know where I live?
