“Amaruq crouched low to the earth, his knee resting softly on the damp leaves and dirt, careful not to break any twigs or disturb the scent of petrichor. Colorful lights flashed and sparked around his pupils, just before closing them. Amaruq took a slow and deep breath, and as he exhaled, the colorful lights within him come forth like a torrent of water, filling every nook and cranny around every leaf and twig. He smiled when the light seemed to focus on a few small spots of earth, flashing with the rhythm of a heartbeat. Amaruq had found the trail of the enemy, and now, their escape would be impossible.”
– Xendarro, chronicler
