The sound he releases is somewhat of a growl, disgruntled and somewhat vexed.] You're that given when you barely know what this thing really wants? You do know something like that takes around 16 months to grow. [He steps closer to get the nail, but not without rumbling about it.] Keep your foot elevated; if you have any clean fabric, cover the wound with it. It may not bleed, but I ain't hearing the thing talk about no infection.
[He strides over to the wooden face and shows all of the nail clippings—overkill and not—to the face.] That enough?
[The Dryad croaks something that sounds like a cackle, and immediately the air seems to lighten up, roots creaking and slithering away and the spores settling. He grunts.] That ain't a welcoming committee I appreciate.
