She is the Embodiment of Darkness, representing everything that is wrowng in this world. It is said she is the corrupted form of Mother Nature. Lady Shadow reigns over a world that exists within the dimension of dreams and nightmares. Those who enter her realm through their dreams may end up being possessed, her way of travelling into the real world.
