A shadow covers the berries he was about to pick, and they swell with health as the snow around them melts. "Good forager," says a deep, clear, but not overly loud voice. "Would you render unto me the service of a song?"
A ten-foot tall man, looking almost like he was doused in ink, stands there. He is dressed like a French nobleman, but his clothing is torn and embellished with fungus of all kinds. In his pitch-like palm sits an ancient-looking gold coin.

Feuerstein looks around, sensing a trap, but plays a jaunty tune nonetheless.
"You flatter me." His deep voice has remained a calm near-monotone for the entire conversation. "But what is it you seek, my well-dressed acquaintance?"
“Now it is you who flatter me, Mr…”
"The name I go by is Brother Careme. Humorous, is it not?" He laughs a bit, not forced but not really excited or happy either. "To put such a title on a beast!" His exclamation barely qualifies as such.

The man sits, listening for the entire song. When it is done, he takes another coin from his pocket. "Such amazing talent. I have underestimated you." He offers the coins.

“Have you not felt the joy of laughter with a friend, or the bright feeling you get when a close friend references something only you will know, and looks for your reaction in the creases in your face? Do you live your life in a black void, brother Careme?”

The towering man doesn't make any sudden moves. He slowly leans forward. "You've met her. For this I offer my condolences." He sits down, laying his cane across his lap.

"I believe that must be the case, as I have no friends." He plays with his cane, planting the tip in the ground and moving his hand in circles. "I've found that those I make do not last long."

"In a sense." He draws a large circle in the dirt with his finger. Mushrooms instantly sprout up from it. Inky caps. "I know how to counter her divinations. Step in this circle, please. I promise, it will not harm you."

The mushrooms melt away. "If she had the ability to track you before, she no longer does." He stands. "We best move. She'll notice getting cut off."

'Where to?'
The Prince opens a tree like a door. "Wherever you wish, magician."
'Wherever I wish? Well, had a hometown a long time ago, or somewhere at least they might not remember me. Hamelin is a no-go, they ran me out of that place on a misunderstanding'

"Your hometown, then?" He holds out a hand to help Feuerstein up into the door, which he holds open for the musician. "Mind the insects. We do this with their permission." Behind the door is a black precipice.
