A Hidden Eye

"This doesn't make any sense! Who even uses a plug that looks like this!"

"Actually, much of the adventurers-"

"Hey, Telerand? The portal looks like it's flickering-"

Things on the restoration side went on as usual, minus one agent who had gone to town to fetch refreshments. But beyond the screen of the dilapidated portal, was another pair watching with great interest.

"They're onto our tracks," a Thath grumbled, "How do you intend to shake them off?"

The vampire lounged back with a smile.

"Dear Posi, don't worry. The fun has just begun."
