The Norse is more about the projection of a human ancestor or sometimes of a natural feature manifesting in the form of an animal. Either way, Conjure Animals is a manifestation of outofbody animals, who protect the conjuror and communicate nonverbally enough to move against the specific enemies of the conjuror.If you want the Conjure Animals spell to additionally grant the conjuror a Speak With Animals effect with ordinary animals of the same type, that can be a cool situational benefit.In a Norse context, the conjured animals can even be a manifestation of the conjurors own outofbody projection. In this sense, the conjuror is getting the advantage of becoming a real animal.In any case, you have point. Maybe to heighten the animistic flavor of the spell, the caster should be able to see and hear thru the senses of the conjured animals. This would convey the flavor of either attuning the animals or projecting the animals.</blockquote>
