Before engaging, Moon turned his focus from the clearing to its surroundings. He scanned the trees, the bushes, the rocky outcrops, looking for the ones who had hidden and never engaged.
He found two.
One was tucked behind a thick cluster of foliage to the east, almost completely concealed from the four in the clearing. The other was lying flat on the ground beneath a fallen log to the west, his body barely visible even to Moon.
'Better to deal with them now, before they catch on to the chaos and try to opportunity-snipe.' Moon thought.
He dropped from the tree silently, his concealment rune no longer active. His feet touched the forest floor without making a sound, the soft earth absorbing his landing completely.
Then, Moon began moving toward the closest hidden Evolver, the one tucked in the bushes who clearly thought he had escaped notice.
