Vaust observed with barely noticeable curiosity as Liu Fei put pencil against paper, faux mustache on his mortal guise twitching from side-to-side momentarily. When the last scratch against the paper was delivered, the Necromancer approached, neck craning towards the paper being held by the skeleton. [color=#2d7d38]“Mmmm… seems like we have quite the eventful encounters as we make our way there.”[/color] Lifting his cane, he pointed its tip towards the massive signature at the very limit of what had been scouted.

Retreating the cane, the other markings found almost no interest coming from him. [color=#2d7d38]“A pity, even if I had been able to see those other marking with my own eyes, chances are I wouldn’t have any idea of what they might be. Botany and biology are not my areas of specialty.”[/color] He still left that one comment to hang about in the air, while he continued to thread onward through the thick thicket.

While the sickly, overly sweet scent of decay was not a bother for the Undead, quite used and even found of such fragrances, the very oppressive nature of the Labyrinth was a different matter. It made the undying narrow his eyes slightly, considering it a slight against his very presence: some contender trying to measure strength with his own. But, in due time, it would be dealt with. Momentarily, his eyes slid towards the floating Scrying Orb, lips curling infinitesimally. [color=#2d7d38][i]‘And so will those toys.’[/i][/color]

With the forest’s pulse on his mind, suddenly that forest’s predators were revealed. Like a stitched monstrosity of plant and beast, Vaust greatly disapproved of such a creation. It bore no finesse, no beauty, no intricacy, just a thing for an end. It was dull, and [b]⚐︎⬧︎⬧︎♋︎■︎♏︎⧫︎♒︎[/b] wasn’t found of dull things. Still, the being, perhaps, bore some studying.

Without uttering a single word, nor performing any gesture, he scanned the area with knowledge beyond mortal ken. [b][Action 1][/b]

In the next moment, he lifted his cane, the glass globe on its crown pulsing with a low and constant dark green. [color=#2d7d38]“Barrier!”[/color] He uttered, casting a defensive spell, rather than an offensive one. His targets were his allies, which were granted a semi-transparent, blue shields in front of them composed of hexagons. It allowed attacks from inside, while blocking attacks from outside.

He then waited, eager to watch how things would unfold.
