Dialogue
Oho! You are Azem's familiar, are you not?
I pose to you a question: imagine an object you truly desire lies before you. What do you do?
What will you say?
Take it!
Shout “NEED”!
I see... As rumored, you do show a glimmer of intelligence. Avarice is a mark of sentience, you know.
Speaking of which, my pot of nectar has recently gone missing—along with the nymphai I was observing. Welcome as this confirmation of their intelligence is, they aren't meant to eat all of that at once.
Of course, should I pursue them, they will like as not hide for fear of reprisal while they devour the lot. However, they may respond if a fellow familiar expresses her/his doubt that so much nectar truly belongs to them...if you take my meaning.
I believe I caught a glimpse of the nymphai surmounting the fence to the southwest... I assure you, you will know them when you see them.
<squeal>?
The...nymphe?...squeaks innocently in response to your query, but you have ample reason to doubt its sincerity...
<squeal> <squeal> <squeal>!
The...nymphe?...squeals in a presumably disgruntled fashion and waddles away.

<squeal>! <squeeeaaal>!
The...nymphe?...waddles away, but not before you catch a strong whiff of nectar.

<squeal> <squeal>!
The...nymphe?...waddles away, looking rather pleased with itself.
You've returned! But where are my nymphai?
What will you say?
You should probably forget about those.
B-Beavers...
What in the world are you talking about? Come now, tell me what you saw. Spare no detail—I'm a professional.
Strange, brown-furred creatures? That waddled!?
My nymphai were bright, and winged, a-and— Oh... Oh, no...
No... No, that's absurd... Ha ha... Ha ha ha...
Tell no one of this. Some things are better off lost.
