The report, Master.

[nods]

I am not in favor of doing so. I would much prefer to seek less . . . extreme measures. Which is why I have come to speak to you.

[ Giving her a curious look. ]

Why?

[tilts her head]

Part of my reasoning is personal. But as for the rest . . . moving our hunting grounds may only result in where we stand right now. I would rather reason with the creatures out there and try to seek resolution, than flee and fight this time.

... Your group has many amends to make with those here already. Their voices do not speak kindly of you.

Nor our voices of them, either. I will not deny that.

But I would like to see if it is possible. Humans and the like are meant to coexist with nature, not . . . [handwave] It is how I was taught.

[ '-' ]

You will live truly as meant?

You have my word that I will try. But I must protect what is mine, as well as my own life, too.

There is no reason for the hunt without a reason for return. I will aid you with the voice, and the way of her and her band.

. . . truly?

We have long said that the way of life is to live among those that surround us, not defy. Those past thought themselves and their needs greater than any other, the only needs to be heard. To only take and never give, never share. That is no way to live and I will not help those that try to live as such.

[frowns, but she nods in agreement]

No, I agree with you.

... If you shall try, I shall.

I will try. That I can promise you.

Whose voice will you learn?

. . . I can learn one?

I can teach a voice, for a time, to any willing to learn. It will not stay, not unless you stay at my side.

[gosh learning '-']

If I wish to speak to the matriarch of the lizard creatures . . . would that be one I can learn?

The matriarch...

[ Frowns a bit. ]

It can be learned, but it will not help, not much.

Why is that?

Can you hear the voice of a creature no bigger than the tips of your fingers?

. . . I - what?

That is how loud our voice is to it.

. . . oh dear.

The red creatures that call Her home, they choose where she will nest. They are the ones that have chosen here.

[thinks for a moment]

Then . . . is it possible to speak with them? In order to pass along a message.
