When learning the secrets of advanced nature followers, the druids quickly
realize that nature generally doesn\'t want to be controlled. Some lesser
beasts, like wolves or bears, can be trained or enchanted to simply follow
orders, and do not require any further maintenance. But really strong nature
creatures quickly begin to cause mischief when not under strict control. After
long research, the druid order created this discipline that allows young druids
to safely manage them. It consists of constant vigilance, tiny orders, eye
contact and few other techniques aimed to establish your dominance and reassure
your followers of their proper place.
Of course this ability requires the constant concentration and exertion, which
proves rather taxing for the druids stamina. Luckily druids can ask nature to
help with their stamina too. Only time when you can relax a bit is when the
monsters are sleeping.
Beware, that sometimes single wrong move can cause the follower to lose their
respect of you and flee to their natural habitat, or, in the worse case, attack
you. Of course, falling to the ground, completely exhausted, doesn\'t help to
show your strength either.
When you master this skill, you may safely attempt to control two basic pets,
or one advanced.
Regardless of this skill, the basic bond with advanced followers needs to be
very strong. Such a strong link doesn\'t fade easily, and when your pet flees,
you find yourself with no followers and no way to summon more, because the
connection with previous ones is disrupting your ability to concentrate on the
calling.
