After a moment's pause, Smoke decided to pull away from the group and put her words into action. She wasn't exactly a trained scout, but she had some amount of experience, at least. She made sure to keep the group in sight; that limited the distance at which she could range, but it was more important to avoid getting lost right now.
Granted, that was experience in dungeons. And generally with monsters, not humans. Humans who likely hadn't been this way in days.
The big problem was that in a dungeon, you could tell that a passage was in use because, otherwise, it'd be covered in dusts and cobwebs. In the forest, there were signs of passage everywhere. She couldn't tell the difference between a flower that'd had its head torn off by an errant boot and one that a deer had taken a bite out of, nor could she recognize whether a bush had been dismembered by a jogging human or by a fleeing fox. She was sure there were differences, but. Well.
Blarghhh.
At least Dzwonyr was also looking.
"Anyone found anything?" she asked, returning to the group.
