Not having read MITS yet, and being the kind of guy who likes to bend the
rules anyway, who cares, but have the blood mages hide her trail in a
metaplane. You used to be able to do that for yourself and foci, spirits,
etc. Make it so the blood mages have figured out a way to to it to other
people, then they either have an atral quest (make it hard) ahead of them
or do the research.
