258 Exploration

Wolfe carefully made his way past a few more buildings when the first damaged spell activated due to his presence. An intense [Gravity Field] nearly slammed him to the ground, and Wolfe quickly cast a [Gravity Array] to counteract it, then searched for the spell's origin to deactivate it.

It appeared to have been inscribed in the bottom of what looked like a staircase, possibly as a mobility aid. Once he found it, he only had to focus on deactivating it, and the spell fell silent again, allowing him to move through the street toward the partially intact building that was his destination.

Despite the destruction, the one thing that Wolfe didn't see was any bodies. If the complex had been occupied and taken by surprise, he would have expected there to be skeletons everywhere, but he hadn't detected a single one yet.
