He has two mechanical figures on display in front of him, about the size of one's open hand: a bluebird and a tortoise. The bluebird goes through the motions of pecking at the ground strutting a few steps whilst the tortoise ambles at a more sedate pace. ]
As All Hallow's Eve is approaching, so too does the end of the year. I've developed these mammets lately together with the clockmakers of the Forge. Should you wish to commission a gift, I suggest you do so sooner rather than later.

Ah, she can understand speech, can she? I must apologise. But yes, that is certainly enough.
[ He doesn't write this time but takes out...a small crystal? And concentrates on it for a few seconds before putting it down. ]
I can make the mammet's casing out of ceramic or metal. Ceramic will allow for a more realistic facade but is of course a touch more fragile. Metal will be more costly due to its scarcity. What is your preference?
