Hiding in the bush is this strange creature. The thing
around its neck could be a beard, a scarf, or a bit of tinsel. It might be
preparing to take a dip into the river to catch its tea. It’s not exactly camouflaged,
but it might have emerged from underground, or it might be wearing trousers
made out of leaves. It might even have crafted a tool made of sticks; either a
grabbing device or some kind of giant crossbow. And is that a gun next to his
left arm, or a twig, or a walking stick in the shape of a foot made from bone? If
all goes wrong, it can either sink back underground or pull itself up the vine
behind him onto the branch. Either that or someone above has caught themselves
a troll. Or maybe something behind him is preparing to pounce. It’s already gobbled
up other things.
