"Alright, maybe I underestimated my situation."
Aether frowned, rushing through the shadows, using his affinity to his advantage, and sticking near the darkest places. He couldn't sit in one place; if he did, then the others would find him.
He needed to be on the run, and yet, he was so tired he couldn't hardly keep his eyes from closing. Even now, as an echo, even after his muscles had gotten stronger and were made to resist more, they were still sore and almost giving up.
Before, he only had to worry about one group, but now, with that shitty mage asking for more help with affinities related to tracking, he had to run from more than one group. He regretted using the lantern, but one thing was still saving him.
If he found a way to steal it or destroy it, he could be free.
'And at least, on the bright side, I'm keeping them busy.'
But how was he going to find and destroy the lantern with so many people following and tracking his every step?
'Give me a break, would you?'
