How to bond a Brown Swordtail

Make resolve your most frequent instinct: watch first, plan, hold your position when it gets loud. Favour direct choices: the shortest line to the problem.

One route that works, and the one with the best odds of surviving (85% chance of a bond):

  1. The Gate. Hang back. Read the wind and the ridgelines first.
  2. The Ravine. Throw a rope, take the high ground, and watch.
  3. The Ridge. Rope the squad together and cross at the pace of the slowest.
  4. The River. Keep your eyes on the far bank and do not stop.
  5. The Ashfield. Kneel and press your palm into the ash until it stops shaking.
  6. The Silent Colossus. Bow once, rise, and speak your own name.
  7. The Judgment. Your word. Swear to guard wing and rider alike.

Instincts shown on this route: Resolve, Resolve, Loyalty, Resolve, Resolve, Resolve, Loyalty. Other routes reach the same breed. What matters is the count of each instinct and each tail, not the exact scenes.
