She does not answer, but when Kestrel translates to her she answers back, "I
think I can manage. I don't remember anything about this place though."

Astran is able to see two Astral imprints of what Astran recognizes to be
Lyra and Grendahl up above from where he is through the rubble. Astran can
also see in the short distance from Lyra and Grendahl the astral imprint of
something or someone approaching the building that houses the tunnel that
you all traveled through. Astran obviously cannot figure out what it is,
but it does look humanoid.
Selwyn's astral imprint seems like Kestrel's and Lyra's...the elvish astral
imprint. Through the door that is down on the map, Astran can see the
astral imprint of what looks to be a pair of gloves.
Looking past the door that is on the right of the map, Astran can see a ways
a way (about 20 feet), the astral imprint of a magical door...or a magically
trapped door.
