Hello, everyone. It's Dextera.

I've recently come into the possession of a potion that allows me to speak with animals. It's limited in both quantity and effective time, but with everyone coming in recently, I've noticed that there are a lot of new animals running around the town. If anyone has very strong feelings about learning the emotions of their animal companions, please let me know. I'm willing to use the last of the potion to ask.

Additionally, it seems that the thoughts of the creatures in the forest are as distorted as their bodies. I could understand them, but I couldn't "understand" them. I did learn that the geese are very angry. For those of us who have been investigating the forest, I thought this would be of interest.

Thank you for your time.

Oh.

I don't think it's poison. It could be a hallucination, but it feels real. I think my chicken was being honest.

[ ok well typing that he sees how this might look bad, ]

[heartsteals]

[ this certainly is a conversation he's having... ]

And what is it that your chicken told you?

[passio]

[ trust him? please? ]

She's very hungry, but she's happy here. It seems mundane, but I guess the latter could have been wishful thinking.

[heartsteals]

[ HMMM... well, she didn't tell him she was the second coming of christ or anything like that, so this... is less suspect than it could be... he guesses. ]

I must ask - is she speaking Human words to you with her beak, or are you simply hearing her words in your mind?

[passio]

[ don't worry, she can't be the second coming of christ when that's already dextera's job. ]

It's like she's making sounds, and I know what those sounds mean. I suppose I'm approximating what she's saying... or I could be making it all up.

In the end, I suppose it will be an interesting experience for you either way. Unfortunately, I haven't any animals for you to try talking to.

[passio]

That's all right. Even without an animal, you and I were able to talk, so I don't consider this a waste.

[heartsteals]

[ ?? ]

Have you few people to talk to in town? Potion or not, I should think you could speak to me anytime you like.

[passio]

It's not that. I'm just glad to get the chance to speak to anyone. Conversation is difficult for me.

[heartsteals]

Is that so? Well, it is quite easy for me, so if you'd like to practice, feel free to write me a message at your leisure. You seem like a pleasant fellow, chicken whispering aside.
