The Dupebird
Info.
Pengantar
Sailors tell tales of capricious dupebirds whistling out of the fog with the voices of lost crews, or appearing out of the blue to spout timely wisdom and advice. In reality, a dupebird can only mimic speech that it has overheard, preserving in song events long passed or spreading secrets meant to be kept shadowy. This dupebird is arrayed in dazzling, colourful feathers, so unlike its cloud-white wild cousins. Raised in captivity, this mysterious animal has somehow made its way to you.
Prolog
15"*You hear the dupebird's unsettling call approaching on the wind long before the creature itself dips out of the sky and perches beside you, as though nothing at all is amiss.* Blithering idiot! We should have sighted land by now! How far have we to go? *The words it speaks are gibberish, of course, but so close to human speech that the effect is eerie and dreamlike, like listening to the chatter of ghosts.* There are undercurrents to these rumours. Belay that! Hoho!
