“Shh! You gotta be more quiet!” Malik says, and though the words are exclamative, he manages to whisper-shout them in a way that he’s sure that no one but the rock-jumping boy will hear.
Otherwise someone might find and interrupt them, and Malik is quite determined that he not be discovered.
The casual way that the other boy speaks of Seeing is familiar to Malik even if the method is not, and he nods quite agreeably at this addition to his midnight venture. It feels right, somehow, to have someone beside him. The space there is not exactly Raum sized, but it is a close enough fit for this adventure.
“We’re going to the entities!” He says, remembering only belatedly to lower his own voice, tripping over his words as well as his feet as he continues toward the distant lake. “I’m gonna get a fire aura! Or maybe lightning! Or maybe fire lighting!”
Malik knows very little of the entities, only that they are the granters of magic and protection. One gives wings and horns, but he already has those and is rather fond of them. The other though, the one from Straia, tells the future and gives protection, and Malik is eager for a shield. Then he can go out into battle fully equipped, and win glory for Hyaline.
Or so he imagines.
