The quiet streets of the night city felt eerie. It looked as if no one was currently out on the streets, yet Auriel's senses still picked up on the human presence all around her.
Most people were hiding in the shadows, waiting for their chance to jump out and assault a passerby to take everything they had.
Auriel suppressed her presence as much as she could to avoid being found out and quickly made her way to the place where she had promised to meet the kid during the morning hours.
She did not immediately see the kid when she reached the alley, but Auriel's senses told her that he was nearby. The scent of black magic dominated the air, and Auriel felt a wave of dizziness as she stood near it.
'Don't let it get to you. Pay attention. I need to remain vigilant so that I am not accidentally taken advantage of by someone.'
Auriel kept her back straight as she walked up to the place where she sensed the kid and waved her hand.
