That made my eyes narrow just a fraction.
And an important question came to mind.
"Tell me...how did you find this place?" I asked, keeping my gaze fixed on him.
"By tracking remnants of my energy that had been left on you," he said, nodding slightly toward the goblin beside him. "Veyra here has a strong sense for energy signatures. One of the traits of her innate skill allows her to follow the scent of a person's energy over long distances."
I went still for a second, turning that over in my head.
So that was possible.
Tracking something as intangible as energy… not just sensing it, but following it like a trail.
Then that raised a more immediate concern.
Did she track mine?
"I know what you're thinking," Caius added before I could say anything, his tone calm, almost casual. "But she wasn't able to pick up your energy."
That made me pause.
Really?
