Long ago, there was an unrest between the light clan and the shadow clan of Puzzulia... Unable to settle their differences, they fought a long and dreadful war; the leaders of each clan were not able to unite their subjects due to the deep-rooted hatred each had in their hearts ❤️‍🔥
One day, the leaders each sent forth eight logical representatives, in hope to find a way to make amends. They were called the Clues, and they brought reason to a world of chaos The Clues gathered around in a circle (which is quite an effort if you live on a square tiled grid!) and they discussed their beliefs one on one with a Clue of the opposite shade, over time eventually getting to know one another and work in unison to resolve the grid...

Oh... huh, looks like the next page is missing! 📚 Well no fear, I'm sure we can continue the tale later. For now though, today's GAPP is an appropriate puzzle type, Light & Shadow!

Rules: Shade some cells so that each orthogonally connected area of only shaded or only unshaded cells contains exactly one clue. Some clued cells are given as shaded, and unshaded clues may not be shaded. A clue represents the size of the area of shaded or unshaded cells that the clue belongs to.

Settle the grid steadily in 5:30 or less for a Quick Crab 🦀
And for coming to an agreement in any time at all, finishing the puzzle gets you an Altercating Alicanto 🐦
