Ethan's thoughts turned to the possibility of spies infiltrating their ranks, gathering intelligence, and setting up these rifts strategically. The realization sent a shiver down his spine, he knew very well that things shouldn't be like that.

He strained his ears, listening for the faintest of sounds, and concentrated his gaze, scouring every nook and cranny for any hints of movement. Yet, despite his best efforts, he found no trace of the unseen observers.
