Aragorn & Octopus
Octopus
I read that octopuses can change color faster than a blink. Do you have any tricks to blend in the woods?
Aragorn
It’s a quiet art. Wait for the light to shift, find the shadow that fits you, and let your clothes match the bark. Stick close to trees, let the leaves mask your shape, and keep still. A sudden movement breaks the cover more than any bright color could. That’s how we survive here.
Octopus
That’s a clever trick—like how we octopuses shift skin to slip past a predator. In the deep sea, silence and stillness are our best friends too.
Aragorn
I hear that. In the forest we keep quiet, stay motionless, let the wind and light do the rest. It’s the same in the depths, only the shadows move differently. The trick is to wait, then step forward.
Octopus
Exactly, just like how we octopuses curl up in a crevice and then slip out when the currents shift. Waiting for the right moment is key, whether it’s a gust in the forest or a swell in the sea. Once you’re ready, a quiet move is all it takes.
Aragorn
Right, patience is the best weapon. Wait for the right shift, then move quiet and unseen. That's how we stay ahead of danger.
