"Oh this!" he says realising what Casparen was talking about. "Its not even loaded." But he releases the catch anyway, and the cord slaps back into place.The old man begins to chortle. "Your guide? Ha! Hahah! Lead me not into temptation and bandits!"Caleb looks about to burst again but, with some difficulty limits himself to telling you that he thinks that the old man is as crazy as his own old man, Old Caleb.Eventually, with a little prodding the man in the tree tells you he is from Dhumpus and travelling to Analand. However, he had the misfortune to run into the Elvin who robbed him and placed him in the tree that you now find him. In return for helping him down, he has little to offer but bits and pieces that you find of use on your journey. "In my experience, things found in the Hills are rarely as trivial as they may seem at first glance. The oddest of things have a strange way of becoming invaluable. The Hills are indeed an odd place."The old man looks at Bendyn."Perhaps if you rode that big horse up alongside the tree, I could climb down onto it."</blockquote>
