A scene
Someone had stolen a jeweled comb from a senator's daughter in Calypso Park, and the sentries were baffled. A druid from the Plain of Gwyddneu, visiting the capital against her better judgement, crouched beside a strutting peacock and asked it. The peacock, it turned out, had seen everything and wished to discuss it at length: a boy in a green tunic, very rude, who had not admired anyone's tail. The ducks in the fountain would not answer at all; the spell spoke only to peacocks. Within the half hour, the sentries had their thief.
