Pearl seemed almost excited as it processed Ratty's latest thoughts, it actually had an idea of how it might be able to assist it's host this time, by making use of it's analytical abilities that let it so easily break down and reproduce magic in a form that even Ratty's small, magically deficient body could handle, and decided to show it's thinking to Ratty in a series of images, too busy calculating to bother attempting to difficult task of synthesising words in the way it had recently taken to doing.
The images were simple, first showing Ratty eating the stone from the ruins, and then Ratty creating the sleep spell on the guards... The followed up with Ratty eating... Something? It was less an image and more a feeling of unknown, likely referring to the anomaly.
It seemed Pearl was suggesting that if the source of the anomaly was edible... It could turn out to be a way to hide the Nest from scrying attempts, as it clearly had the ability to do that judging from the Elder's words.
Of course though this did bring up the problem of fuelling a spell like that in the long term, or keeping it going if Ratty was elsewhere, but it seemed magic was often found in stones, perhaps eventually Ratty could work out how to put magic in stones too?
The elder seemed to understand at least some of Ratty's attempt to communicate without needing a translation this time and gave what Ratty was reasonably sure was a small smile.
"Indeed, may our next meeting bring joy and good news".
She agreed before Ratty was led out to their room, the beds were quite comfortable, and Ratty would have a whole bed of their own to lay in, as well as a blanket and pillow, Lizzy meanwhile seemed all too happy to fall into hers, judging from her sudden change in body language she had been just as tired as Ratty and simply doing her best to hide it, which made sense, she was still somewhat sickly and recovering from malnourishment, and they had been travelling quite a lot.
"I missed beds..."
She mumbled to no one in particular, lazily kicking off her boots and disappearing under the blankets, basking in the warmth of cotton.
