Shocked the fire out of me, but just had to play along with it.

>A lean bear stands up on its hind legs and begins pawing at its neck. Carefully removing its skin like an overcoat, a hazy bipedal shape emerges from inside the bear skin. Neatly tucking the skin under one appendage, the blurry shape flickers out of sight.

Obvious paths: north, south.
