History of the Shift

However, not all elves were heroes, and not all of their spells were meant for good. Legon was known not only for his wisdom, but also for his ruthlessness. One day, a man entered his tower trying to steal the Book of Changes. As soon as the elf caught him, he fell to his knees, began to beg for mercy and cry out for mercy, hiding behind the children. Legon grinned and said: "You are a thief who hides under the guise of an unfortunate family man. But I will make sure that everyone sees the real you."
 
He imposed a curse, which by the standards of the elves is considered the most cruel of all. The man did not die, but his head moved and other heads began to come out of it — distorted, screaming, crying. Each of them lived their own lives, whispered or howled at night.
 
The monster that the elves now call "Shift" cannot die a natural death. He can only be beheaded. And judging by the fact that one knight saw a helmet in the form of the head of this monster, he still found his death.
