Atlas was in a relatively isolated corridor of the Imperial Prison. In reality, it was not such an empty place. There were guards stationed every few meters who switched shifts often. There were always soldiers patrolling the halls to ensure that the prisoners didn't think about escaping.
When Atlas left his own corridor, he immediately met two guards. However, he had already accounted for them.
'My spiritual sense still works.'
Because Atlas' mind was still his own, his spiritual sense was able to spread just as far. He could see the layout of the prison that the Second Prince didn't know.
He moved based on these findings.
'The guards change shifts every three hours. It is often enough that none of them are unrested. Their wariness is kept high in this place even when they know nobody will escape.'
