Like shadows, Atticus and Jonah's footsteps were practically soundless. Each step was calculated, trailing after the men inside the house as they moved to an exit. They split up soon after they reached a certain distance and Atticus gave Jonah a purposeful look. A wordless conversation was exchanged between them and Jonah nodded, immediately understanding what his king wanted him to do.
From the pocket of his coat, Atticus pulled out another small selenite piece, passing it to Jonah before reaching for a second piece for himself. There, they split up, one following each man.
Atticus ran the piece of selenite down the invisible barrier, watching as a fine line tore through the forcefield that was created to keep this hut out of plain sight. Jonah would follow the second man while Atticus chose to follow the first.
