Soul brought up the shadows around him in a coffin shape, the shadows absorbing the acid before melting back down into the ground around Soul. Soul then drew back his bow, loading a rather large shadow arrow with his bow before pulling back and firing. The shadow arrow flew through the air towards the others, splitting a hundred times so that there was now a hundred shadow arrows streaking through the trees to pepper the group.
In the time that he fired and the time the arrow split, Soul was already gone again, using the shadow as a teleporter to get away from the group. Soul found himself on top of the same building from earlier. He grabbed his side with his hand, wincing in pain. When he pulled his hand away, it was covered in blood, and it felt like it was still dripping.
The shadows seemed to have been affected by the gravity change, but not by much. The had faltered, but when they left the zone they returned to their original strength.
