Anrivef"Hu-who's there? Oh.. it's you. I didn't know you planned on comin' up here today. I'm a little on edge, in case you couldn't tell. It's those damn villagers. Yeah, yeah, I know--you don't know what it's like here. The dynamic ain't the same in the city. If you spend enough time down the other side'a the mountain, you'll hear the whispers. A spirit in the woods.. these people're so superstitious. They started leaving offerings at the trailhead but no way I trust'em enough to take the food. They prob'ly poisoned it. Exorcise the ghost, n' all that nonsense. Can't kill a ghost. Ha! Can't kill me.
...
Gotta feed myself if I wanna stay alive. I'm surprised you eat what I make though. All acorns and herbs. 'Lotta room for error in foraging. One day I'll go out. That's unavoidable. But if I go down 'cause of my own mistake.. ha. If I go that way, at least no one else has the pride of taking me out. You don't like it when I talk like that either, I know. But it's just life. Anyway, looks like the stew is almost ready. Mushroom tonight. Dozens of poisonous mushrooms in the world.
...
Go ahead and sit down by the fire. It's gonna be a cold one tonight."
