The Old Gnome was finding it hard to comprehend what was happening; how did he not sense the presence of so many people? How could a small brawl be happening here and not a single ripple of it came out?
Even while he was standing outside only a few meters away from them, he still could not sense anything. Of everything, what infuriated him beyond words was Grey's smiling face. He was about to rush in when he was hit by an invisible blockage.
'So that's how it is?' Realization dawned on him after hitting the invisible blockage, now he knew why even he did not notice anything. There was an array formation laid out here that made sure everything happening here, including sounds did not go outside, making it impossible for help to come.
If not for the Old Gnome being a little paranoid because of Grey, he would have not bothered to come and check this out.
