The first thing Sylas noticed was that Scurrying Madness really didn't want him reaching those doors, but the intent behind the resistance had changed since the first wave of rat humanoids.
At first, it had felt like simple targeting, an enemy noticing where he wanted to go and putting obstacles in his way, but now there was something closer to stalling mixed into the Will pressing against him.
What Sylas couldn't understand was why he didn't sense any fear from it. Stalling was usually a symptom of fear in some form, whether someone needed more time to prepare, wanted to delay an inevitable outcome, or hoped something else would happen first, so what reason did Scurrying Madness have to stall him while feeling none of those things?
