Noan heard this and looked up. There was nothing there but a path completely covered by water.
However, he also had the feeling that someone was watching him.
The feeling was very faint; if he hadn't focused on it, he might not have noticed it.
Noan nodded and said, "I have that feeling too."
Aldric said nothing more, pulling out the sword he wore at his side, and then...
Whoosh!
He slashed out a crescent-shaped streak of light, which shot towards the ceiling.
BAM!
The streak of light collided with the water channel and then exploded. The strange thing was that when the collision occurred, only half of the water fell down before flying back up, rejoining the river flowing above their heads.
"That is..." Suddenly, Aldric spoke, his face filled with anxiety and fear.
Noan frowned, feeling confused, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Aldric glanced at Noan. "Don't you see anything?"
Noan shrugged and said, "Yes, I see water."
