Departing [2]

Bai Xieren rolled her eyes indifferently. "Wait until the rest arrive."

Damien shrugged and spread his awareness to cover the floating island. He watched as four others, including Long Chen, made their way to the courtyard using various methods.

To the East was a woman submerged in shadows. Her body moved from shadow to shadow indiscreetly, slowly making her way to the room. It was a method Damien had used before by borrowing Zara's power.

To the North was a man with a lanky build, almost to the point of looking malnourished. As Damien watched, his body disappeared, leaving only his clothes to fall to the floor.

On the ground below, a small green snake slithered unnoticed through the crowd, its destination the same as the previous woman's.
