Some kind of bug with centaur acute vision. Sometimes I can see invisible people in the wilds, sometimes I cannot. Can't figure out system behind it.


A Narrow Rocky Path
A narrow path winds its way along the face of the mountain. Glancing down,
you suddenly realize how high up you are as you look down on a broad canopy
of trees that grows more dense to the southeast. The path itself grows ever
more treacherous to the east, but seems to be well defined by tiny piles of
gray rock. You can follow the narrow path to the west or to the east.

and flat outcropping of rock. To the west the path seems to grow more
treacherous.

A Flat, Rocky Outcropping
A broad, flat outcropping expands towards the south. A deep fire pit dug
amongst the gravel gives off faint light and some warmth to the chilly night
breeze. Thick slabs of rock have been set in front of the fire to prevent
it from casting much light, though why anyone would wish to remain in the
shadowy darkness of the night is hard to understand. Seeming to stretch out
into the night, the outcropping continues to the south, and a narrow path can
barely be made out to the west.

This is a felar cave explorer ranger on the road south of the Weald.

I have also encountered this intermittently in Talshidar caves:
* cave explorer can see Talshidar thieves in room and on scan
* other explorers can only see them on scan
* centaur warrior and non-explorer rangers cannot see them
