The story of Menasting

"Being made of pure energy, its insides are completely hollow. This Pal crams still-living prey into its hollow body, where it absorbs them. Hellish screams of pain can often be heard coming from inside this Pal."

The Paldeck entry is quietly horrifying: a hollow body of energy that stores still-living prey and absorbs them. In practice it's a Defense-boosting bruiser with a wall's stat line.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 1. Do not stand near the tail. Learned that once.

Day 3. 130 Defense means it just doesn't fall over. Great anchor.

Day 6. Mines coal all day and keeps the party tankier. Unsettling but excellent.
