Hades' heart raced in a strange mix of anxiety, excitement, and tense anticipation as he entered the black tent.
Erecting the Zone of Tranquility, the first thing to greet him was the thick scent of burning incense and the heavy aroma of various herbs, making him feel slightly lightheaded.
'At least the incense is not a magically induced enchantment,' Hade reasoned, because if it was, it wouldn't have managed to bypass the formidable anti-magic shield of his Order Manifestation spell.
Nevertheless, holding his breath and resisting the urge to cough, Hade used this time to quickly take in his new surroundings.
The light was dim, coming from a single, flickering candle on a small table.
Revealing very little of the tent's actual interior, the feeble flame only helped add to the unsettling ambiance.
