Hailing from another dimension, these ephemeral facsimiles of demonic silhouettes are once again called upon by the power of the royal sceptre in Memories Lane. Six Shadows in Memoriam can appear on the battlefield at the same time, making it beneficial to eliminate them swiftly before they overwhelm the party.
