Saibrah steered Grodra away from the group's rendezvous before directing the hulking beast to the ground. It landed with a puff of debris and a slight indention in the earth around it, rearing back before finally settling to stomp over to the group. Saibrah swung off of his largest dragon, directed its massive head to his chest, which it easily eclipsed, and pet it momentarily before tapping his amulet and watching the behemoth dissolve into his universal relic. As their team reformed at the perimeter of the mist, Saibrah stood aloof from the group to inspect his surroundings. His pupils radically dilated for a split second before returning to normal as he attempted to peel away the layers of fog. However, nothing changed.

Saibrah gasped as he realized the implications. It couldn't possibly have been that his extrasensory sight was gone, or that it wasn't honed enough; it was that the mist itself was impairing his sight.

In Saibrah's startle he was oblivious to Eien having already walked into the border of the mist. Saibrah jogged to his side while releasing his Mythari and Nybion, both creating a protective circle of five feet as they flew opposite of each other in close proximity slightly above and around the pair. Nybion's two Globes of Ielle orbited in a circumference twice that of the dragons', opposite of each other as well, illuminating what they could of the pitch dark. Both dragons remained alert and Mythari could contact Saibrah telepathically with anything it found distressful and vice versa. Saibrah himself was wary, two flames brewing in his hands which hung at his side. Saibrah had practiced being able to channel while preoccupied with things like walking and speaking, and had grown quite good at it.

The mist was as unnerving as it was ominous. Saibrah, not one to appreciate silence when uncomfortable, spoke up to Eien. "Exactly what are we looking for? I'm not sure if I entirely understand our mission here." Saibrah wasn't well acquainted with Eien but hoped that if Eien chose him to travel with, he had some other reason for doing so besides recognizing Saibrah as the weakest link in their group.
