On his way to Wistvale, as he neared the town limits, Dieter found a choice shelter formed by the overhang of a leaning mountain- well, far less than a mountain, yet a little more than a hill. It was a few hundred yards off the Eastern road, and he saw it while hunting for food. Under the overhang of this 'mountain' Dieter stamped his foot in the ground mightily, and with the force of the impact and the manipulation of his earth magicks, three thick walls sprang from the earth around him, using the leaning mountain on one side and the three walls to form a hut, invisible from the back of the hill, and well hidden amongst the trees.
Next, and in much the same way as before, he used a might stomp and a crack formed in the earth in a perfect square around him. Dieter slowly raised his hands, and the slab of rock was lifted out of the earth. Carefully, he used his hands to direct the slab over the new hut, as a roof. Finally, Dieter ran his magick-enfused fingers across the front facing wall in a small, nearly perfect circle, and then punched the circle out to form a small window. He then brought all of the comforts of home to his hut- a torch for inside light, and a ring of stones and some wood for a campfire outside. As for the door, this was a hut only Dieter was intended to be able to enter, and as such the only door was earth magick. To enter, Dieter simply placed his fingers into the front wall and shifted the earth to the left, compacting it much like a sliding door, before shifting the earth back.
Satisfied with his work, Dieter decided he could camouflage the hut later to make it look like a natural rock formation. The exertion from lifting the walls and slab, while not terribly intense, had made him a bit light headed, and he exited the way he entered as prepared to cook the rabbit that had led him to his new home. After his meal, he headed to town, sure to mark the trail with broken twigs and deftly marked stones.
