Syrus had been on alert ever since he had saw Mei, but that night on the mission below the moon he hovered alight above a roof top. He had his comms turned on but ignored them for the most part because if this or anything went wrong he needed to be where he thought he needed to be. He had somewhat of a freedom to use his powers right now, kinda like a special permission from Corvo himself to get a return on his investment. This meant, or at least to Syrus, that he could alter anything he needed to as along it was with in mission parameters. So instead of being in his spot as a look out and he decided to go with higher ground. Syrus served the area as the others breached the compound. He did this to make sure that no one would interrupt what was going on inside the compound. For the most part everything seemed OK but he wanted to stay on guard just in case someone might have been on look out for the other side. He kept a cluster of small ice crystals that were sharpened at the ready to snipe anyone down that might need it.
