Where does Titania lead him?

Checking her traps

"I'm a hunter by trade", says Titania as they walk together. "I set several traps last night which will hopefully prove to be bountiful. You are welcome to a share of the profits for watching my back.

Jerry had no problem with watching Titania's back as she led him deeper into the forest. Particularly Jerry had no problem watching her leather clad backside move back and forth as she confidently proceeded down the forest path.

The forest itself was almost ethereal. The trees were green and full but whispy and almost translucent. Some bore strange fruits that Jerry vaguely remembered from strategy guides he had read. They were crystalline in appearance in jutted from the high, leafy branches like ornaments on a Christmas Tree. Jerry plucked one as they walked. It shined like a ruby but was long and curved like a banana. It had a sweet fragrance that made his mouth water. Against what probably should have been his better judgement Jerry took a bite of the strange fruit.

His mouth immediately was filled with a horrible sour bitterness. The noise he made caused Titania to turn around. She arched an eyebrow as if to say "Really?" before continuing on, laughing to herself. Jerry flung the ruby banana to the ground behind him and continued following Titania silently.

Suddenly his ears perked up as he heard a rustling ahead. "It looks like one of my traps has caught something," whispered Titania. She had hunched low and was proceeding cautiously into the shadows with her short sword drawn. What could be caught in the Ranger's trap? Could it be some kind of meaty animal? Another Orc? A traveler? Or something else entirely?

What did Titania snare in her trap?
