Heh. A scout.
Visual acuity is a valuable trait in the swamp, but it's not the only way to keep aware of your surroundings.
You don't see your way through the swamp. The grime and muck obscures your vision, especially when swimming. You don't have to look to find your way.
You listen.
You're always listening to the swamp on some level. It has much more interesting things to say than most of the bogknights do. It's when you're swimming though, submersed in the waters of the swamp that you can hear it most clearly.
Greeneye has stopped moving. The walkway creaks as she shifts her balance. Maybe she's spotted you?
No. You're still mostly underwater - your weapon is drawn, but aquablades are invisible when submerged. Greeneye must be looking somewhere beyond - you can hear the others' fight finishing. Perhaps she's assessing their situation. Regardless, if she's a scout, then she's used to looking for danger far away, relying on her squad to handle dangers up close.
Dive deep - and come back up under the walkway.
