The quiet words that she returned to him were met with deep bemusement. The crow canted his head to the right, then the left, and his brow knitted tightly over the embers of his eyes. Tadec was trying to understand what she could possibly have meant by her question. He was unsure how he could not have meant something so difficult to say; how could anyone speak that way and not believe in their hearts each syllable?
“Tadec does not know how… to not mean what Tadec says,” he answered her.
The question was likely a rhetorical one that had gone well over his head. Still, the crow wanted her to know that he was truly capable of lying. The spindly creature knew only how to speak with honesty. The differences in their languages were too much for him to feign a response. It took far too much time to craft what he wished to say, and to convey is accurately for Tadec to hide behind lies.

all the world will be your enemy, Prince of a Thousand Enemies.
and when they catch you, they will kill you. but first they must catch you;
digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning.
be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.
