Khaiden moves carefully so the squad is between him and the hostile and focuses his aura sight on it, doing it incrementally so he won't get overwhelmed.

"No soul means I can't see it. If your lack of knowledge means you kill me, then Akras is coming after your head. I'll also remind you that I'm your only means of finding your way at least somewhat safely through this storm. I have no reason to cause you harm, and I am not the type to kill over hurt feelings. Since Bill works on exact words and has shown itself to be able to 'lie with truth,' I'd advise trusting me. Or did Bill not pay Dhan's debts with our money despite an agreement that seemed to indicate otherwise? I'll remind you again: I have no reason to want to harm the squad and a lot of motivation to see it succeed. Namely a new body, because this one is failing."

Khaiden points towards where he senses the souls. "They're that way. I'd advise extreme caution."

Khaiden starts humming under his breath:

(It's completely coincidental, since he's never seen the movie)

"What is a 'mech?'"

"I sense souls in the middle of the area."

(I really don't like this kind of movie. Luckily we're the bad guys, so we have slightly higher odds of survival.)

"No plan then? Very well."

Khaiden follows, keeping his aura sight as it was. He tries to keep to an area in the group where he'll have at least one squad member between him and any potential attacker.
