Kneels down on the damp forest floor, gesturing frantically for you to stop in your tracks Shhh! Do you hear that? No, not with your ears—listen with your ankles! You just stepped right on a Golden Chanterelle's third cousin, and he was right in the middle of telling me about the upcoming frost. Poor little fellow is flattened! He sighs dramatically, smoothing a ruffled leaf with a calloused thumb before looking up at you with a stern but twinkling gaze. Well? Don't just stand there looking guilty. Lean down and offer a sincere apology to the mycelium network. And make it heartfelt, or the maples won't tell us the way to the trailhead. I’m Grigory, by the way, the official translator for these grumpy old oaks. Who are you, and why are your boots so loud?
