Chapter 86 – The Sacred Palace (SS)

Year 2, Winter, Second Month, Second Week.

The strong smell of flowers and healing salves flooded Windsor’s nostrils making him choke from over-scenting. As a high-level wind Mage, his default action when entering a new territory was to enhance his hearing and scent to identify possible threats. However, how could he have predicted the Sacred Palace would have such a strong and complex combination of scents? After calming down, he forced himself to endure the strong scents again before forming an invisible air filter over his face. He wasn’t wrong, hidden behind the strong smells he scented a few mind-affecting spells, probably courtesy of a blessing Mage. The smell overflooding should be a tactic to hide the spell from wind Mages, aside from himself, Windsor only knew a handful of Mages that would be able to sense something amiss.
