The farther his shadow was away from him, the more mana it consumed. With the tree's long shadows that were thrown over the forest by the descending sun, his shadow managed to track the cloaked person without being found out.
The sunset came earlier than Arthur had expected it would. It took a moment to realize that A) he was in a different time zone and B) he was high in the sky. The air was thinner and mana was richer, but Arthur faced little difficulty adapting to it with his mana and stamina stats.
He followed after both the shadow and the cloaked person until he felt that it was too dangerous to go farther than this. Monsters roamed in the dim-lit forest and the deeper he went into it, the stronger they were.
His shadow kept following after the cloaked person as Arthur hid atop a tree, making sure his Stealth rune was activated. He closed his eyes as he shared his senses with the shadow as it followed after the cloaked person.
