Deadman's errands

Hmm? What was this? Had the boy not heard him? The wolf would not respond to him, however something upon his head turned to him and answered. A rat she was. A bit... peculiar. Reminded him a bit of the tiny little creature the cream fae had with her. Though a rat was certainly larger than the little fluffball with eyes and appendages he saw. Huh. So she spoke for the white male huh? Kau would listen to the words she spoke, single light purple orb going over the body of the younger male again.

Dried blood was upon his coat... and the word relief stuck in Kau's mind. Was it... that this boy was once a slave? Hm... it would explain some things. Kau would ponder it for but a moment before stepping a bit closer, looking down at Nia with a look that was almost gentle. "Poor lad. Looks to still be a mess. Really should plan on cleaning his coat. Red doesn't suit him at all." Though the words sounded kind, there was certainly an ulterior motive here. "He seems to... have a hard time hearing. Was he in an accident? Do you know?" His words were for Tally at the moment, wondering if the boy could hear at all.
"Speech"
