*he follows*
"Hey, why'd ya steal that?"
*the girl notices that what she stole is a silver-plated box with circles, switches, arms, and dials on it, with a blackish metal trim*
*he glides a bit to catch up*
"Slow down, please! Chances are you stole that because you're strapped for cash or something and can't get a job, so stop and I might be able to hel-"
*he crashes into a tree, flipping and rolling at high speed before skidding across the dirt to come to a stop a dozen or two yards away*
"Nice to meet you. The thing you stole is called an Antikythera Mechanism. It's a very specific and minute clock, calendar, and star tracker. I modified mine with a compass, astrolabe, ruler, fire striker, other kind of compass, globe, and grapher."
*plus a traditional clock, a ruler, both kinds of compass, pop-out globe, fire striker, and a star map. It's about the size of a graphing calculator, as opposed to Spark's, which is the size of a laptop*
"There should be a room for ya inside. I'll put a little raven statue by the door. Imma go make some food."
*he heads into the surprisingly well-managed cave*
*he heads into an absolutely huge storage room with organized crates and shelving, eventually grabbing a life-size raven statue, dry pasta, tomatoes, and herbs.*
