	~~When~~ a ~~companion~~ ~~has~~ ~~been selected and befriended, it should~~ be told to leave before ~~the~~ ~~ranger~~ ~~retires~~ ~~from~~ a ~~hard~~ ~~day~~ of ~~adventuring~~ or ~~upon~~ ~~gaining~~ a ~~level~~ ~~and~~ ~~can~~ be ~~summoned again by preparing and casting the spell again, then telling~~ the companion ~~to return~~.		Companions no longer need to be told to leave before logging off. Telling it to leave is only required when you need to take a snapshot of the companion's state.

	~~'''Failure~~ to ~~tell~~ a ~~companion~~ to ~~leave~~ ~~before~~ ~~retiring~~ ~~from~~ ~~adventuring means~~ the companion ~~will~~ ~~forget~~ ~~new~~ ~~things~~ ~~(including~~ ~~improvements~~ to ~~the~~ ~~relationship~~ ~~and~~ ~~gear~~ ~~added to the companion)~~ and ~~failing~~ ~~to tell an~~ ~~animal~~ companion to ~~leave after achieving a new~~ level ~~means~~ ~~that~~ ~~the~~ ~~animal~~ ~~will~~ ~~not~~ ~~level~~ ~~with the~~ ~~ranger~~.~~'''~~		Examples of when you might need this: After having had the companion groomed, after giving the companion equipment, or if your character levels up and you want your companion to level up without having to log out and back in.

			While {{boldmono\|GUARD}}ing, companions will search for hidden creatures/players. Discovered creatures will be immediately revealed. If a player is found, the companion will indicate them to the ranger, but not reveal them.
