From what we know, they can only steal our magic if they can overpower us, or we give it voluntarily. They might be more afraid of us, but we should stay on our guard, and stay close. Also, plan to book it, if we have to. Personally, I don't think it's one of these creatures. Call me crazy, and I have little evidence to go on, but I suspect somepony was learning to replicate that magic-stealing ability.

I don't know if it is Kazakar, since there doesn't seem to be a motive as far as I know, plus he disappeared days ago, before this incident.
Evanescent then yawned. It is starting to get late.
