Actually, it started out really well.
Renee did not simply hide the bone. She went a step further and erected a barrier that neatly enclosed Riley, Liam, Orien, and even Thyrran within a defined space of the estate.
The moment the barrier settled, the normally unaware aide noticed how the air changed.
No wonder everyone else in the meeting rooms always seemed on guard. To think he hadn't really considered the barriers at every corner of the MBE.
More than that, just how dizzying would it be to go to the place where magical beings gathered?
But his thoughts were put aside because Thyrran, much to Riley's surprise, even made a point of swearing neutrality.
The ex-guardian coiled himself near the edge of the barrier and promised not to assist Riley in any way during this particular hunt. If they wanted to really speed up his training, then it had to be through his own perception rather than borrowed awareness.
