Mithrun agrees: This is great for their goal here! So, he sees no reason to throw off the strategy by approaching Popp and risking tipping off their prey.

He keeps to his part of the strategy, staying overhead and keeping an eye out - until he catches sight of another Devourer creeping toward Popp.

This one... that's far enough off from Popp, he thinks. He snaps off a branch, and casts. ...Hopefully, his aim and his estimation of the distance are both right.
