The woods. Horrible place made up of organic life. The trees were fine. They were useful. Everything else was not. Vines. Bushes. Birds. Squirrels. Worthless. All of them worthless. If not for the moss, ferns, and little friends skittering around beneath it all he would truly detest such an environment. Why couldn't nature just consist of trees, ferns, moss, and little friends?
But that was a line of thinking for another time. Tinker had business to oversee.
A large satchel on his sides was shifted around to being in front of him. It contained only a single item: a large reinforced box made of iron and wood. He pulled it out and gently set it upon the ground. It was open and within was a collection of thirty dolls made from cloth and clay all roughly the size of pixies. They looked like Anirian scouts complete with spears that more resembled short needles on sticks than actual spears. Little blades and hatchets sat on their belts. By all accounts they were toy soldiers for some noble kid.
A soft wave over the tops of them with his hand. Each one touched and after seemed to perk up as if awakened from slumber. They crawled out of their box in an orderly fashion. Tinker stared at them a moment then was saluted by all the little scouts. They split themselves up into groups of five and headed off in different directions. They were out to patrol the perimeter for any potential threats.
After they were gone, the dreadlord to be closed the box and returned it to his satchel. Then he looked around. Mushrooms were everywhere. Best he forage a few and bring them back. He didn't know which was which to be safe to eat. But Evie would. She could divide them up and a use for the toxic ones could be found later.
So he went about picking up every mushroom he could find.
=======================
Tinker would return to the camp with arms filled with mushrooms. It didn't matter to him what everyone else was doing. He went straight to Evie and would dump them on her lap. His eyes on her he would simply say, "Here."
A nod to follow then he would just leave her before she even responded. He needed to set up his own tent still after all and that was his current objective.
