Spoken in whispers, and always with reverence and fear. The legends say all the thieves guilds are connected, Their leaders are able to move all sorts of illicit and precious cargo across Albion unnoticed. However, only because the various guilds and families work together. Those involved in these guilds hear stories about a winged shadow who devours those that betray their guild or "Put The Life At Risk." Those in the know, learn to pay heed to such legends.
Young children stealing apples to survive, raised in poverty and no stranger to the dregs of society, have often been heard reciting quick prayers,. Pleading for the favor of a shifting shadow before tempting brazen theft and making a quick escape.

Either because the eyes that follow them all over town or more directly with letters stamped with a black shadow, wings curled upward mid flight. The most respected in the guilds have been seen to brand their forearms with tattoos resembling the same shadow.
