[Mister Squiggles, meet Cedric!]

Silly, silly spider. The squirrel is not to be feared!

...well, not by Mister Squiggles anyway. Bipedal creatures roughly human-sized might have more to worry about.

"And if Cedric is really that unsettling for you, Mister Squiggles, then the sooner you do this the sooner we'll be on our way. You wouldn't want to upset my little friend though, would you?"

Cedric lets out a quiet sad shriek.
