[ Sylvain has been trying very hard not to pick up whatever might be beyond that boulder. His magic is sporadic at best right now, but being able to sense emotions while they were down here was not a fun time on top of everything else they're dealing with. There were times, when he didn't have control of it, that he lost track of what was him and what wasn't.

While they discuss what to do, he's keeping an eye on their surroundings, eyes scanning the shadows, his paranoia and hypervigilance not letting up even when surrounded by others. He's not sure if he's imagining the feeling of being watched or if there is something lurking nearby. Either way, he'd prefer to not have to stay here longer than necessary. ]
