Professor Emilia Rumford's Folding Camp Stool

A compact folding stool with weathered green canvas seat stretched over metal frame, settled on uneven ground near the Rollright Stones. Professor Emilia Rumford uses it repeatedly during the survey work, perching there to review field notes and consult equipment while supervising the others. Its small size and portability make it practical for roaming archaeological sites, but its presence also signals temporary occupation—a makeshift headquarters in the midst of ancient mysteries.
