[Something is not right. It's not only hearing people ask each other if they're alright with an alarming frequency, not only those asked seeming to know what is wrong even as other cues he gets clearly tell that that's the case, but the sharp spikings in heartbeat or quickened breathing, signs of surprise that he can hear coming from all around the island at different intervals.
Something is not right, and Matt intends to figure out just what that something is... except when you can't see, things like feathers or glowing orbs aren't exactly the easiest to spot, especially as the magic in them means they don't really behave like regular objects he'd be able to sense with ease.
That means that as he walks around, his cane keeping a regular beat as it hits the ground (after all, a blind man walking around without a cane would attract more attention), he's very much in danger of accidentally walking straight into one of the floating memories, or stepping on a feather... and maybe someone should stop that from happening. Or let it happen and let him see just what exactly is going on here.
Or maybe you'll find one of the memories he doesn't know he's lost...]
