I'm pretty sure they meant to drop it for a new player to pick up, since there's a Toy Vendor (I think?) near Marrakesh Meadow. Marylpole Mount, I think is very close.
This happens a lot. I used to have a stack of commons by my door and when I left home I would take one and drop it somewhere discreet. Common cubimals approach cups-of-water for their forlorn-ness.
