Ethan and James made their way toward the heart of the city. The mayor's residence stood somewhere in the central district, a place James had visited many times before, though never with such ominous purpose.
As they walked, Ethan's enhanced senses caught something that made him pause internally. A smell drifted through the air, faint but unmistakable. It was a scent he recognized from the Different world he had visited, a race that now felt increasingly relevant to their current investigation.
Werewolf, he thought, the word forming clearly in his mind.
"So paranormal creatures are living here after all. That means other races might have established themselves in this world as well.", Ethan mused.
He glanced sideways at James, but his companion continued walking without any visible reaction, completely unaware of what Ethan's superior senses had detected.
