Hadrian's heart raced.
Since he'd been close to the city, he'd stopped riding creature Hadrian, spreading his vessels, of which he had five new rodent like creatures, out in his range of control.
The female mage noticed creature Hadrian from that great height, which meant she might be able to sense him too, as they had only been about a hundred metres apart.
Based on her attack, he deduced she was an elemental Mage, and a powerful one, either rank four or five.
He'd not gotten enough time to peer into her essence sea.
So, he stood still suspecting she'd sensed creature Hadrian's movement on the earth, or even a shift in the air.
Movement might not even be necessary for her to notice, but he and Alia had the fog layer wrapping.
For the small burrowing and rodent vessels, they were small and regular enough to be ignored.
