"What's with the beast? You seem to take great interest in it," Spes inquired after noticing the beast Decus had been examining for a while now.
"The beast... it seems so weird..." Decus answered, a frown on his face, constantly trying to probe through the beast tucked in between his feet.
"How so?" Spes asked, grabbing his rock and sitting closer to Decus, his eyes brimming with curiosity.
"I don't know... I can't seem to put my finger on it... it's just a feeling..."
"He's right." Liber would then talk in Spes's head, confirming Decus's suspicion.
"I have the same feeling... Let me have the Seed initiate an analysis. Pretend to place a hand on the beast—it shouldn't take long."
Spes did as instructed, placing his palm on the beast's torso.
