The Midnight Terrain (T M T)

Within a short amount of time, a large amount of various species has gone missing throughout the world. The majority of the species that had gone missing were of the darkness. They traveled around in the night. These were the species that were often seen as monsters and persecuted by the humans. Worrying for the safety of their own species. The elders decided to convene and form a council of species. Each species was given a single representative to represent them on the council. Each species had their own special way of choosing who would be picked. For the dragons, it was their king, for the hybrids it was their oldest and wisest, and so forth. What will other species choose to do for their selection process? What will they find out in their investigation? Will they find those responsible for the killings?
