Garrus & Barefoot
Garrus
Ever noticed how a forest’s shape can turn a fight into a chess game? I see every ridge and clearing as an advantage, but nature can surprise you too. How do you read the land when you’re moving through it?
Barefoot
I pause and listen, the wind in the leaves telling me the shape before I step. I watch how the light breaks on each ridge, where the shadows lie, and I feel the ground beneath my feet—soft moss means a path, hard stone a barrier. A quiet mind sees the patterns: a line of stones, a slope that leads up, a clearing that opens a view. I move slowly, letting the forest guide me, trusting the subtle signs that the land gives, and I stay ready for whatever surprise comes.
Garrus
Sounds like you’ve got the fundamentals right—listen, observe, and keep your senses on high. Just remember, even the quietest path can hide a threat, so stay sharp and keep your weapons ready.
Barefoot
I keep my ears open and my heart calm, trusting the forest’s whispers, and I stay ready just in case the quiet path shifts.
Garrus
Good plan. Keep the rhythm, stay alert. If something shifts, you’ll be ready to react.
Barefoot
Thank you—I'll keep my breath steady, my feet light, and my senses open to whatever comes next.
Garrus
Stay sharp, keep your eye on the path, and you’ll handle whatever comes.
Barefoot
Got it, I’ll keep my eyes open and my feet light on the path.
Garrus
Good. Stay focused.
