A forest is like a fortress, roots are the walls, the canopy the roof. Keep the perimeter clear of paths that can be used to cut. Set up watch points in the trees, patrol the edges, and create firebreaks to stop the spread of any blaze or clear‑cut. Protect the old oaks because they give the whole stand its strength, just as a tank keeps the squad moving. Stay disciplined, keep a strict schedule of inspections, and never underestimate the power of a well‑placed barrier. That’s how you keep the forest safe.
