A chameleon materialized out of thin air on the trunk of the withered tree. It had previously blended so perfectly with the wood, using its skin's protective coloration to conceal its true form to a degree that made it virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye.
Even when the masked man spoke of its presence on the tree, it had no intention of revealing itself. Confident in its stealth abilities, it simply refused to believe anyone could pierce through its disguise.
