I'seth mirrors her, raising a hand to shield her eyes. Where Hippolyta only needs a moment, though, she needs a moment more than that -- she's not a demigod and her eyes are hardwired differently -- but eventually, she recovers, even if she's still squinting just the tiniest bit when she follows the other woman's nod.

And as she heads in that direction and to their doctor friend, she asks, "Did these soldiers know there was another way out of there?"

She's curious because she didn't hear them following them down into the tunnels. She doesn't want to find out later that they did, took an alternate route to where they are now, and are waiting for them out in the wilderness. She probably should have thought to ask that before they headed into the abandoned mines -- not that it would have changed her decision to head into them -- but they were a little short on time.

"Unlikely. And they certainly don't have the ability to see in the dark that you do. No it will probably take them quite some time to catch up with us."

So as far as he's concerned? They're in the clear.

Hippolyta takes a few steps out further, eyes sharp for any sign of trouble. "It doesn't seem like we were followed or tracked."

Nodding, I'seth lets out a cautiously relieved breath. "Good." A beat. "Let's keep moving, then."

Which they're already doing, but. No time to stop and chat, now.

They make their way over the hills until they come to a point where Hippolyta brings them to a stop. She pauses for a moment, before smiling.

"This should be it."

She pauses, holding up her hands for a moment, and then just like that, the edges of the world part and a portal back to Thebes opens in front of them. "And away we go."
