But as they, too, were part of nature, they could not escape Ereneth's gaze.

One figure stood out among the assassins—a man whose face was heavily wrapped in bandages. The moment Ereneth identified him, her breath caught.

Every time he exhaled, a dark aura emanated from him.

Through her connection with nature, Ereneth could sense that aura clearly.
