The ranger dipped his head in greeting as she shared her name with him, and then he hummed in some displeasure as she relented about the precarious bothersome root.
"I've tripped it over myself a few times until I finally remembered it was there." He grumbled as he started to look around for a solution to keeping others away from it. Ah, perhaps a large rock behind it would start to make people avoid it and their trek would naturally widen the path.
"Most folk get lost when they come through here. I've come to know these woods well." He replied as he absently moved towards his task. There was a nice boulder just a few tail lengths away. He started to dig around it and then proceeded to dislodge it from its mooring.
"Placing this rock by it will at least make it less of a hazard for others." He mentioned with a grunt, rolling the stone toward the bothersome root. It'll help it survive and keep it clear from tripping over others.
"Lazuli Falls is where Polaris resides. We were called Ethne for a while, but we're Polaris now." He said, setting the stone in its new place. There, now others would have no choice but to walk around it as it nestled against the hazardous root.
