Trollka & Burdock
Ever thought about turning a fallen oak into a quick watchtower? I can show you how to wedge a hollow branch in the trunk for a lookout and hide a small pit behind the roots for a quiet spot to stash gear. It’ll keep the wolves off the ridge and give you a decent view of the valley. What do you say?
That idea sounds handy, but I don't need a stranger telling me how to build a watchtower. If you want to help, bring your own tools and stay clear of my ridge. Otherwise I’ll do it my way.
Sure thing, I’ll bring my own saw and some rope. I’ll keep a safe distance, but if you’re set on doing it your way, I’ll still be nearby if you need a second hand. Just let me know the exact spot when you’re ready.
Alright, I’ll pick a spot near the old stone cairn on the ridge, a bit north of the stream. Keep your tools handy but stay out of the path I use to patrol. I’ll let you know if I need an extra pair of hands.
Got it, I'll keep the tools close and stay on the ridge's edge. When you need a hand, just give me the word, and I'll be ready. Good luck on the patrol.
Thanks. Watch your step and keep your voice low. If I need you, you’ll hear it from the edge.
Gotcha, I'll stay low, quiet, and keep my voice down. If you need me, I’ll be right there, ready to help.
