This was not to be taken lightly, and their worries would further increase if one or multiple Guards would be around.
They were unable to exclude this possibility as an informant could have forwarded intel about the Yinar race's planned attacks on the Soul Monarch's claimed mine and the city in which the Soul Monarch had enlarged the portal to the Kianan race.
Yet, even if the Soul Monarch would have been informed about both, this wouldn't be that much of an issue.
The most important thing for them was to protect the enlarged and stabilized portal.
