Eric listened to the ongoing story, the visual queue and it's elaboration of these historical myths being true rather than fiction. It was surprising and to anyone it would be a tall tale hyped up with computer animation. Yet.. it was all too real and just as it concluded the youngest of the group seemed to pipe up from their spot. His attitude was rather absurd and irritated Eric to the point where simply shoving down and ignoring it wouldn't be an option immediately. He couldn't let such rude and unruly behavior persist at this time, especially with how this was going for them all.

Eric closed his eyes, his mind calmed as he listened to the room and the people for a moment. He focused on their magic and their bodies, that which made them unique and themselves. He harnessed this focus and traced them all inside the room like a mental imprint of their magic. It presented him an exact count of everyone and what they were currently doing. It was easier than he thought outside of the forest, and unlike before he didn't need his anger to do some magic. This opportunity was marvelous for him as he could get a feel for everyone, however something was off. Eric was use to keeping track of people and he had counted those who had entered the room and yet there was an extra body now. It was magical in nature, and it was hiding. 

[I]"Hiding?"[/I] He asked himself mentally as he surveyed the auras again as the seconds ticked by, he focused on the count one more time. He ran through it several times before growing very angered, his nature was rather blunt and he simply couldn't hold it back anymore. Between the brat and the hidden body he was growing ever more furious with their childish actions. 

"Twelve!" Eric let out with a short growl. "There are twelve of us present. Yet only Eleven of us are visible. Tell me, young man, you speak of rushing off and making haste. However you are barely capable of slowing down long enough to find out we have someone hidden in the room! Mind your manners boy, before you go spitting off your opinions like law." Eric made himself voiced heavily, he spoke sternly and his accent weighed heavily on his words before he shook his head and then directed his gaze to the female in the back of the room. He stared at her with an evident pair of eyes. She couldn't avoid his statement and his pointing her out to the room. 

"Lass, we all know you are there now, so come on out and make yourself known. We don't have time for games." Eric pushed through a few of the people and he stood tall, his stature wasn't to be easily mocked for a male among this group. He watched her with wary eyes. He wasn't sure who she was or why she was present and he despised making enemies. However he couldn't afford to play too nice with the recent changes in his life.
