One of Xylath's protruding eye stalks caught a flicker of movement near one of the buildings as Reizu ducked into a covered area to spy on the Maneater encampment, but it settled into hiding too fast for her to identify it. Knowing it wasn't one of them, Xylath withdrew her antennae into the shell-like dome in a flash, so that she looked like a semi-normal girl wedged into the shell. She also lowered her eye stalks to make them less noticeable, though not low enough that she would lose her three hundred sixty degree field of vision on the area. She could survive the destruction of her nearly humanoid "lure", but hoped it would not come to that. For now, she waited, keeping an eye on that area.
