I decided to make things a little more foresty, to go with the pointless forest of it all. I was going to draw a picture of the house belonging to a particular pine cone spirit (retired) that I make up stories about. It didn't come off, though, so this is a picture of another house down the way, not nearly as close to the dark and shadowy edge of the forest. I think this is where the pine cone spirit's friend the Umble lives. He has a large floppy hat that is not very clean and (as you can see from the open barn door in the side of his house) often lives with livestock in the house, usually just a sheep or two but occasionally a goat or a shaggy pony. While the pine cone spirit's house is always very tidy and freshly scrubbed, and he is always ready to sit at a nice bare wood table with you to share some tea and cake, the Umble's house is rather dark and cluttered, and the table is generally covered with stacks of paper and recently washed mugs that he couldn't be bothered to put away and maybe some kittens.
