That was why it could smoothly pass through the beasts gathered around the pit without drawing much reaction.
At most, in the crowding, occasional brushes of fur provoked a few threatening growls from other small creatures. Once they moved apart again, the hostility naturally faded.
The more closely one observed, the more one could sense the faint, unspoken understanding among these animals. The larger and more lethal creatures tended to occupy positions closer to the Sinkhole's edge, while small animals such as field mice, pheasants, and grass snakes could only settle for areas farther away.
