Next version of LM will also include a new character - the Rat. She is a wilding, living in a forest and you will meet her while fishing at a river. However, she will also play an important role in the game, as she is the only person who will sell you gather-able resources, like wood or stone. She only sells once per day and it will be kind of random, what she gathered that day. But this will be important, if you don't want to spend a lot of time gathering or training work servant.
The update will be out in a few days. Cheers.
