You decide to check out the beings you sense deeper in the forest. After covering a mile and a half in three or four minutes, you notice the glowing coals of a fire in a clearing. Near it is a tree stump with a wood and metal tool embedded in it and a number of similar tools leaned against a structure made of logs. A considerable pile of wood sits behind the cabin with a narrow path wending its way into the clearing from roughly the way you came.

Finding a particularly dark spot in a nearby tree, you decide to examine the minds of one of the creatures. As expected, it is far too complicated for you to fully understand, but you recognize some concepts such as language, food, and death floating around in its dreams. From what you have seen, these... people appear to be harvesting the trees and sending the logs away, though you have not seen the method of transport. Prodding deeper, you learn the group of five is from somewhere called Novara, some fifteen miles away towards the river.

You sincerely hope you haven't caused fatal brain damage... yet.

These creatures are new to you, and strong willed. It would take a serious effort to weaken them to the point that you could consume or... alter them, but with some luck and perhaps eating their dog, it could be done.

Eat their dog.
Alter one so it radiates comforting darkness.

You break a large stick from your tree, allowing it to fall to the forest floor. The dog is not impressed, and doesn't bat an eye.
You then proceed to scare the bejesus out of by getting a bit closer and waving your shadow tentacles in front of its face. The dog bolts into the woods, yelping. Following it in the trees, you wait for the opportune moment to strike. When the time comes, you drop onto it, smothering it as you rip its soul from its body. The dog bursting into flames during this process does not help matters, but at that point it's already dead. Still, the fire manages to royally piss you off, sting, and make a lot of light, smoke, and a smell of burning dog at roughly four in the morning.

On the plus side, this dog was a lot larger and smarter than the bird you ate earlier, giving you enough energy to last a week if you decided to lay low and an improved sense of hearing. However, you doubt its master will be happy to find its charred skeleton. That can't be helped.

Returning to the wood pile, you insert yourself into one of the men's dreams, weaving tales of eldrich horror, doom, and torture. Along with this, you convince his unconscious that you pose no threat and that the path of darkness is the way. You have no idea whether he'll be batshit insane, in a coma, or dead in a couple of hours though, it's not like you've done this before or anything.

Time: Just before dawn, what do?
Sunlight is bad, though at this point firelight is just a pain in the ass... or it would be if you had one.

You hide in the shadows of the wood pile to avoid the morning light, considering your options. You could turn these creatures against each other, one by one. You could experiment with creating or altering life. You could simply wait, and allow your tampering with the first creature's mind to manifest. With your current power, you may even be able to bend the elements and aspects of the world to your will, though taking a human life would make it easier. What would you like to do?

Physical power: 0.9 (1 point = the strength of 1 average human in a fight) Physical power is used to directly combat enemies or prey. Keep in mind that you do not have the physical limitations of a human, and have an amorphous shape that can change at will, even becoming two dimensional to hide in the dark or creep up on prey.
Focus: 1.6 ( Higher focus allows you to magically affect the world and the things in it) Focus is used for invading the minds of prey, altering their dreams and thoughts as well as various magical abilities.
