Scourge & SteelRaven
You know, I was thinking about the best way to track a target through dense fog—what do you think about using scent versus sight?
Scent has the advantage of consistency; a single source can be followed even when visibility drops to zero. But it’s also highly directional—any wind shift throws you off. Sight, on the other hand, gives you real-time context: you can see terrain, obstacles, and the target’s maneuvers. In fog, combining both—use scent to locate, then visual confirmation when the cover lifts—would be the most reliable approach. Just remember, scent trails can be deceptive if the target has been training with masks or has walked a longer route.
Good point, but masks only work if the prey is foolish enough to use them. Always expect the target to anticipate your scent, so blend deception with the approach. Stay patient, stay unseen, then strike.
Sure, but remember: the best deception is to be the quiet shadow, not a noisy trickster. Stay patient, let the fog do the work, then hit when the target thinks the wind's your ally.
I’ll stay silent, let the mist be my cloak, then when the target thinks the wind is safe, I’ll strike. No wasted noise, just pure precision.
Sounds like a plan—just make sure the mist doesn’t decide to play the role of a confused GPS and lead you into a trap. Precision is fine, but the target might already be anticipating you. Keep your own silence airtight, and don’t forget that even the quietest steps can leave a footprint.
You're right—mystery can be a trap. I’ll keep my silence tight, watch for every faint footprint, and let the fog do the rest. When the target's misled, I’ll be there, unseen.
Keep the fog as your ally and the silence as your shield; every step counts, and the best traps are the ones you never hear before. Good luck.
