I have come across many books on goblin witchcraft here.
The locals must have been preparing to defend against the neighboring tribes."

"There are some rare spells. One uses caterpillar legs
to summon monsters that can be controlled! Judging by the illustrations,
they could be related to our investigation.

"Gather some materials for me! Doesn't matter whether it's their broken wings
or their stingers."

"Hmm. there are some interesting ideas here.

"Ah! You're back! Did you get the materials I asked for?"

"Great! Now you can watch me do what I do best!"

Charlotte, her movements exaggerated, arranges the materials into a strange shape
before starting to chant an unknown incantation.
Following an explosion of light, a caterpillar crawls past your foot.

"That isn't quite what I had in mind..."

You ignore her attempt to play dumb and watch the caterpillar crawl on.
