There had been minutes, minutes, between when he'd finally found Relyt -- all while avoiding a figure that paced across the property hidden behind the smoke and sand -- and when Nhulynolyn and his party had arrived.

"Are we going to tell Relyt what we've discovered?" she asked as she tucked her shoulder against the doorjamb of the dining room doorway. Azriel looked at her and she raised an eyebrow.
