Dust Elemental what happens when i have 3 creatures but 1 of the creatures has shroud

[Backpack]

if i play a dust elemental and i have 3 creatures in play but one of them have shroud does that mean i have to return dust elemental himself to my hand or what

Dust Elemental's ability doesn't target. You can tell this because it doesn't use the word "target" anywhere. Therefore, you can return a creature with shroud or protection from white with its ability.

Odd question and interesting ruling.

I have to wonder, what game situation brought about this query?
