Colvin grimaces, and disappears from sight. To most people, it looks like he has simply disappeared, like he never was. To a highly accurate observer, however, they realize that the change was not with their surroundings…it was with their own vision. It is like someone has placed a picture of the scene without Colvin in it in their visual organ (for most people, their eyes). Blinking heavily, focusing their mind on dispelling the fog someone can get the glamour to dissipate from their sight for a moment, seeing the scene as normal…potentially making out Colvin if he is within their sight.
This is one of the most common magics of the Fae—glamour…the ability to confuse and muddle mortal vision. It was granted to Colvin by the Spear of the Wild Hunt, upon completion of a ‘hunt’. Though the Wild Hunt was led by ghostly leaders of legends, and Norse Gods, its ranks were oft made up of Fae…those cruel, capricious torturers. Though he despises Fae, the spear is beginning to turn Colvin into something beyond human. Not fully Fae, but not fully mortal either. It is beginning to make him a Member of the Wild Hunt.
