This is a world with flying creatures who from their vantage point should be able to see miles and since the world is locked into eternal night smoke wouldn't be that noticeable but light should be visible for miles and he's trying to hide yet he lights a large bonfire next to his lab.
She would know the area because the scouting party didn't return but the large bonfire would pinpoint the exact spot. I know it ended up being irrelevant as she's getting his location from Silvanus but it still feels highly careless.
10672316 Like you said, silvanus already told her where it was plus he was going to be discovered anyways and he knew it. So at that point, even not knowing Silvanus was helping her, he wasn't really concerned with whether or not he would be discovered since he already had been. Thus just tossing the corpses all into a big pile and burning them was simply the quickest and easiest solution for disposing of them otherwise he would have disposed of them in a much more stealthy manner like he had done to the skeletons of the diamond dogs.
The reason Nightmare Moon attacked way ahead of time is because she spoke with the soldiers Gerhardt had captured in their dreams and knew that Gerhardt was expecting her to attack in two weeks. So she decided to utilize the element of surprise and attack him the very next day instead.
Though I definitely see your point and I'll try my best to avoid similar issues in the future. Thank you for the feedback!
