Its hidden, almost as if the structure is intertwined with the jungle itself up high in the trees to avoid the predatory wildlife below. Build from branches and sticks, held together with twine and vine. The house is quite primitive a single room with only a lamp and small table are inside.

beggar
I live in the woods outside a nearby village.  In the mornings I go to the church where the nuns give me leftover bread.  During the day I beg in the marketplace.  I tell crude jokes to men and give compliments to women so they will give me coins.
please, sir, do you have any coin to spare? Ah shucks, you saw me? I did. I have lived among these woods my whole life, and probably see an elf before many men would And you shall keep my secret? of course, friend, I mean you no harm. Why do you hide? I fear the villagers, elves were once captured for our magic. I have heard stories of such things, but I have never seen it here. Are you new to the village? Fairly new. I moved to this tree after I left my parents home..... oh 125 years ago or so. And you, what is your story? My ma and pa died when I was young. Beasts came into the forest, made it harder to hunt since I broke my leg. I work when I can, beg mostly. The priests at the temple usually have a meal for me. That sounds like a hard life! I have no coin, but if you truly mean me no harm the least I can do is give you a meal. I would accept anything you could offer Say, would you like to learn some magic?
