Without really thinking about it, Eien drew forth the white fire to his right hand. The unnatural behavior of the mist disturbed him, it's darkness seeming to have no end to its depth. Ohitsuji was also unnerved, the sheep conveying its observations on the mist to Eien. There was, at this point, no choice but to continue forward. He couldn't see the way back anymore and the mist was so thick that orienting oneself was nearly impossible. He moved along slowly to allow Ohitsuji to create its globes of light and move them forward along with the group. Even though it seemed senses were damped, he hoped that Ohitsuji's Psychic Field would still give them enough warning that they couldn't be jumped. At least, at this point, if something did the Lights would at least give them a fighting chance.

What bothered Eien the most about this was the fact that he didn't know what was going on with Kimlee. He couldn't communicate with her telepathically anymore - he hadn't been able to for awhile. Nor could he do so with Itsuki or Chyou. There had been nothing he had encountered before that had done this. He said nothing to Saibrah about it, as it would gain them nothing to discuss it. If he didn't have access to his gift, he didn't have access to it - nothing could change that at this point.

Saibrah broke the silence, catching Eien mid-worry, garnering a pause before Eien would reply, "I'm not sure. It is impossible to figure out which direction is which in the denseness of this mist." He assumed that Saibrah had to come to somewhat similar conclusions as himself, "There is something inherently foul with this darkness. It is beyond anything I've experienced before. However, at this point, I don't know which way is back." At this point, the only hope of getting out was to pray that they stumbled out somehow themselves.
