Climbing without the use of their aura proved to be a challenge by early evening when it became increasingly difficult to see the markers. At first, it was a slight issue of catching the silhouette of the marker past the sun, but after it set behind the mountain, Will had to navigate the area solely by the feeling his aura gave when he got too close to one of the sticks. He navigated by the feeling he had gotten when he went through the first set of markers. If his aura moved in one direction or the other, he was too close. If his aura closed in on him, he was dead center between the markers, exactly where he needed to be.
