After leaving the stable safety of Mrs. Hircus to be on her own, Marle was very much alone in a sea of strangers. She knew no one, but she needed to interact with people to get what she needed to live out her life in the country. She needed the materials to make her Tammy and provided sustenance for both herself and her friends. Sometimes she would take them into the woods out back behind the abandoned cabin she found in the northern country of Dirina and had wonderful tea parties with them. They would spend all afternoon chatting about various things as they enjoyed their lovely spot of tea.
