Feeling a bit disturbed by the silence Doric weakly floated to one of the buildings to hide out for a moment. He was still trying to gauge time but with there being no sun in the underground he could not figure out how everyone else did it.
Looking around he still did not hear or see any mushrooms. As he was preparing to leave the building he heard a voice call out from behind him.
'What is a necromancer's pet doing in this area?" The voice was callus. Doric turned to see who was speaking to him and put up a shield reactively. It came in handy as a bolt came flying at him, shattering against the shield.
Quickly going to the defensive he looked to see that there was nobody there. Whoever asked the question either moved quickly and quietly or was never there to begin with. He kept the shield around him as he scanned the area.
"I don't belong to any necromancers, I am on a mission to bring back these herbs to the City of Runic. I am not your enemy!"
