That is the rythme that you find comfortable as you scale the canopy of the large tree, looking upwards for a moment you scout around for the next outcropping, silently thanking the gods for giving you the foresight to carry arm guards instead of gauntlets.

Thanks to your simple and lightweight gear, including your Scout Arm guards, you manage to stay mobile and out of trouble, but such is the lot in life for a scout.
