Bab 1487: The Realm's Most Valiant - Part 5

The more Oliver saw through her eyes, the better he could feel the void, and the distortion that was caused by that overwhelming quiet. He felt like he could map the space around it. The feeling of wrongness grew to such an intensity that it almost made him feel sick. He turned his eyes, finally, in what seemed to be the right direction.

Empty air, and then a sudden rush of wind, as a creature dodged past it. The slightest swelling of alarm.

He couldn't see the man, but now he was sure he could sense it. Or at least, he could sense whatever it was that allowed him to move as such.
