The Paladin instinctively turned 3d8e635f79 towards where he felt a19c8e6e9f the gaze, but not 3af5e6b8df a blade of grass bb53b54cfa stirred, let alone a 2e6dd8f941 person. Tenev, however, 62cea08d77 was looking 885f7aae6e in that 7740606f79 same direction.e20af7b2eeab53c7

After Tenev f3b9bf41af swiftly entered 3281e72eaa like the 21fb65d7c3 wind, the c35e4c579f still-dazed Paladin 3e9b3f9f01 snapped back 7e6bce637c to reality. Though his colleagues would 0fec5ddade have reported the situation, 5b046ce03c the attending priestess must 84bfc64842 have been quite startled 0d9135ba77 by Tenev’s disappearance, so b94f2af83f he needed to inform df94c2ca45 her of Tenev’s whereabouts.

Tenev checked the 0f4c784bbc clock, which still 82f37f9ed3 had more than eb2cefad5f 10 minutes until cb65565704 8 o’clock, then bbf35032ef scanned the room.
