Description

Aye, sounds like a right mess up there--like a storm blew through and wrecked the whole place. I can see why they'd be up in arms, but why attack us?

This would be a lot easier if we could just talk it out, but the Winterpelt are famously tight-lipped and don't seem to speak any of the common branches of Furbolg-ish. Furbolgian? Eh, ye know what I mean.

I don't suppose ya happened to have a nice chat with any of 'em while ye were checking in on them, did ye?

Rewards

Are ye even listenin'?

Completion

Now to translate this mess...

Notes

Speak with Sonova again:

Ya said the Winterpelt were shouting things? That could be the key to unlocking this whole mystery!

Could ya repeat what ya heard?

 <Repeat the growling furbolg sounds as best you're able.> (skip to "gGch" or a "Ggch")

 <Roar loudly while lifting your arms in mimicry of a bear.> (skip to "gGch" or a "Ggch")

 What? Do I look like a linguist to you?

No, ya don't. But I do. Me family's been studying furbolg languages fer generations.

Now, are ya ready to give this a try?

 I am. <Growl out the furbolg as best you can.>

 If there's no other way. <Begrudgingly snarl out the unfamiliar syllables.>

 <Give a toothy grin around the low, rumbling sounds you mimic.>

Yes. Mhmm. Was that with a "gGch" or a "Ggch" at the end, there?

 GraagGch. Definitely.

 GraaGgch. With a downward inflection.

 <Growl uncertainly.>

Right. Go on.

 <Recreate what you heard to the best of your ability.>

 <Swipe at the air while growling.>

 Grar?

Ah, yes. Indeed. And how deep in the throat was that last one?

 <Growl from the back of your throat.>

 <Rumble from deep within, engaging your diaphragm.>

 Like choking on a salmon.

That deep, you say? Interesting. Do keep going.

 <Imitate the rumbling vocalizations of the Winterpelt.>

 <Roar and snap your teeth at Sonova.>

 Imagine a bear yelling at you to get off its lawn while chewing on a log. It was like that.

Mhm. I see. And the grinding was all in the molars?

 All the way in the back, yes.

 <Gnash your teeth and growl.>

 Wait, do bears even have molars?

Sonova Snowden says: Aha! That'll do it!
