Sulen remembers the last time they scried a Knife-Winged Moth signifier. A relatively high level Nirai had been caught making minute adjustments to a master clock; Sulen's hept had been called to determine whether the motivation had been heretical or financial. The man had believed himself too clever to fail in his schemes. The hept had disabused him of this notion over three hours.
They wish this situation felt more different.
But it is a benefit, to be familiar with this signifier and all its tells and possible fluctuations. They watch for signs of the arrogance of someone who thinks he's fooling his intellectual inferiors.
