[The Night's Watch had men within it who were responsible for scouting ahead and looking out for signs of trouble. They were stealthy, quiet and knew how to hide their tracks so they wouldn't be followed.
Sam was not part of that group. His talents lay elsewhere.
It also meant that he couldn't always tell if someone was right behind him. At least, not at first. He soon gets the feeling that someone was watching him or at least close by; Sam is unarmed but maybe he could use something close by to get the upper hand. He's faced much worse odds.
A few moments after that feeling, Sam looks over his shoulder to see Cayde standing there, too close for comfort. He lets out a small yelp of surprise before stepping away from him, almost tripping over his own feet in the process. ]
Seven hells! You don't sneak up on people like that!
sorry about the delay!
