A Twig Snaps Under your Foot is an action card in Dragon Age: The Last Court. It is part of The Applewoods deck, but will automatically trigger from the Noisy complication when a new hand is drawn.
Description[]
You stop, as still as the great rock that holds the château above the river. You're sure the hind is close. Did it hear? Have you scared it away?
Available actions[]

Failure: Detached Did it hear your breath? The result of your cloak? Did it catch your scent on the forest's rustling breeze?
Something alerted it. You hear the hind crash away through the undergrowth. It's got a lead on you, now.

Wait it out... ...for as long as it takes to be sure your quarry has relaxed its guard.
