Valetni stopped, turning as he was addressed by the winged creature. He stared as it spoke to him, not watching the eyes, but the mouth. He was pondering how such a structure could properly articulate words. Even if the vocal chords and other apparatus were identical to a human, and judging by the shape and structure of the neck, they were most certainly not, the beak itself would certainly interfere with any attempts to communicate. He'd have to wait until he could take a closer look inside, poke around a bit before he would have his answers. For now, he would simply have to make do with observation, at this rate, the griffin would have a journal all to itself.<br/><br/>Valetni blinked, suddenly remember where he was. "Did you say something?" He rasped at the beast.
