She raises her hands, turning back to the closest toad. Careful not to move any closer, lest that be seen as aggression."There is no threat, you are safe," she explains in Deep Speech. "Our companion is attempting to overcome an obstacle that keeps us from moving forward. If you would be willing to help us and travel together, we can find some fresh food for you. We are traveling deep into the tunnels, where live creatures dwell. We can help you obtain food that will taste good. That's what you want, right?"As she's parlaying with the toads, Jack's declaration pulls her attention and her head snaps back towards him. Eyes blowing wide as he just launches himself towards the hallway. Not at all how she thought they'd be handling the trap. But she doesn't want to yell and startle the toads or agitate them further.She quickly throws out a telepathic link towards him, calling out in his mind with a shuffling arrangement of voices, 'That's a bad idea. We don't have the resources to heal you for that much damage.'</blockquote>
