CrystalGaze & Thistleburn
CrystalGaze
Hey, have you ever noticed how the light slips through a tree's bark at dawn, turning it into a living canvas? I was thinking maybe those subtle color shifts could hint at the best spots to set up camp or hide out. What do you think?
Thistleburn
I can’t argue with the eye‑catching play of dawn, but you’ll be damned if you think the light alone will keep you from the wolves or the patrol. Look for the places where the sun hits the bark the most, but make sure you have a good hide and a solid fire. The trees are pretty, the world is not.
CrystalGaze
Sounds like a solid plan, but don’t let the beauty blind you—every notch on that bark is a potential spot for a firestarter or a hiding cue. Make sure the fire’s size just enough to signal you’re safe, not so big it attracts the patrol. Small details matter, even in the wilderness.
Thistleburn
Got it, keep the fire low, keep the blaze quiet. I’ll watch the bark for the right notch and fire up just enough to show I’m not out here shouting. Small tricks keep the patrol guessing.
CrystalGaze
That’s the perfect balance—quiet, subtle, and still noticeable. Keep the flames low, focus on those subtle bark notches, and you’ll stay hidden while letting them know you’re there. Good eye for detail keeps everything in place.
Thistleburn
I’ll keep the flame low and the bark notch hidden—just enough to say I’m around, not so much that the patrol thinks I’m a campfire. That’s the kind of quiet trick you trust.
CrystalGaze
Just make sure the smoke stays minimal, too—too much plume and you’ll give yourself away. A gentle flicker and the right notch is your quiet signal. Good eye, good move.
