'I don't feel anything weird.' Protector sniffed the air like a hunting dog. 'For what is worth, the smells of our marks don't disappear here, but at the ground level where Friya sensed the exit point of the Warp Steps.'
'How is this possible?' Solus asked via her bond with Lith. 'How can three people sense something that escapes even the Eyes' detection?'
'Because you are using the wrong tool.' Menadion replied. 'The Eyes can be fooled by proper cloaking, but there is no enchantment that doesn't cause a ripple in the flow of world energy. That's why I made the Ears.'
'Fuck me sideways.' Lith said the moment he donned the helm, and everyone could feel the tension in his thoughts. 'We have to leave without arousing suspicions. Follow my lead.'
He shapeshifted into a Tiamat, sniffed the air a few times, and then circled around the clearing, playing dumb until he pointed in a random direction and flew towards it.
