I'm not sure how to translate フォー・ダークネス (alternatively 闇のもの) to English as "
___ Darkness ".

This is the name of some monster. It might be some sort of word play or some
reference to the Shoggoth. I cannot tell.

The フォー part sounds like: four, for, foe, pho, fore, foo, ... but I don't
think any of them match.

I thought maybe "full" but that's written with フル

Any ideas?

**EDIT**

Looks like it's a name attributed to a set of monsters

How to translate フォー・ダークネス
So this is from 時間停止勇者. I initially thought this フォー is "four" (i.e., ショゴス is
one of the four mid-bosses collectively called ダークネス) because having four mid-
bosses is a very common trope (aka
[四天王](https://dic.pixiv.net/a/%E5%9B%9B%E5%A4%A9%E7%8E%8B) or ["Elite
Four"](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EliteFour)).

However, in [a recent
episode](https://seiga.nicovideo.jp/watch/mg489848?track=ct_episode), I found
that a small unnamed enemy is also called a フォー・ダークネス, so now I think this フォー
is **" for"** (i.e., beings that work "for darkness").

I doubt "foe" is relevant simply because this word is way too difficult to
average Japanese readers.

Either way, we may have to forget how it sounds to English speakers, and you
do not necessarily have to translate something like this literally.
