The driver obediently got down and began to swing his head about as if searching, revealing his face – or what should have been a face. Instead it was a rectangular wooden box pocked occasionally with small round holes on its front and two larger openings, one each on the lower end of each side. Thick leather straps held it to his head. A sthenicon! Rossamünd stared, horrified. The driver was a leer! Rossamünd knew there was no escap-ing a leer: the sthenicon revealed every scent of every living thing big or small that moved within an area of a mile or more. What is more they were reported to be able to see things everyday folk could not, to peer into secrets and search in hidden regions.

If you´d ever decide to release an artbook (maybe even a combined artbook/Half-Continent sourcebook?) you would have my money.
