In groups, they shoulder the burden of ranging ahead alone, moving from shadow to shadow, hardly making a sound, as they venture into unknown dangers to find out what lies in wait.

Priests of the Old Faith might follow this path because the talents are useful for protecting their territory and monitoring its borders for enemy movement.
