What It Points To
Section titled “What It Points To”Put this person near a blocked route and they start looking for a way through. They are not guessing for fun. They test the ground before they choose the next step, so others can move without panic. You’d see this in the friend who checks the back gate at a crowded event, then leads everyone out through the quiet side path.
Integration property: Makes the line up as the body moves through the ground, not by reading a chart
