He was so unused to being utterly and completely blind that it took him a moment to recognize he really should be following the sounds of nearby movement. Illidan paused in his motions of wringing out the blindfold and blinked once, eyes narrowing slightly, as he turned his head in that direction.
The startled yelling sounded like a voice of youth and Illidan turned slightly to better face the stranger. His eyes, glowing as they were, would be a little more difficult to tell where he was looking but it was still possible. And, was not looking at quite the right spot to where the teenager was actually standing and currently telling him to stay back. Illidan didn't move.
A moment later there was the unmistakable pattern of someone running towards him. Illidan shifted his hooves slightly to get better balance and try to prepare himself for whatever might come. It felt as if there was a shove on his knee and he hunkered down slightly waiting for something- anything-- and it didn't come. Confused, he relaxed enough to listen again to the young person before he spoke up. "Is there danger nearby?" he asked, voice low.
