What is means to be 'human' (Anselm/Tasler)

[Anselm]

OOC : Let's take stock. Ndale is sitting in a bed in human form (I think) having just gotten her arm splinted. Elem has wandered off to attend to other patients. Thanks for the cameo appearance, Elem! Anselm has just left the room, probably headed back to his tent. Tasler is still in falcon form (I think) and probably flapping along behind Anselm or possibly sitting on his shoulder, although I don't know for sure. Also, we have left the drawing on Ndale's back unresolved and I'm not sure we've gotten very far with the title of the story, although Ndale has been trying to pull that in. I have no idea what the posting order is any more, but Anselm is still curious about the drawing on Ndale's back. So let's see where that goes, shall we? Unless Ndale is feeling abused enough for one thread in which case she can blow Anselm off and we'll call it quits. I propose that either Ndale or Tasler post next. Then we'll have established a posting order again. As Anselm left the room, he had a thought. I wonder what the drawing on her back was? Anselm's great weakness, other than being a dead guy, was his curiosity. He returned to the room and hobbled over to Ndale's bed. “My dear,” he said. “I am pleased that we have gotten your arm taken care of. You will need to be cautious with it for a few weeks I imagine.” He paused, trying to decide how best to continue without sounding totally insensitive. “There was some kind of drawing on your back when you were in your peahen form. It occurs to me that it might still be visible in your human form. Would you mind if I looked?”

I like the effort you guys put in this though. The map is intriguing, and it may be assumed that Anselm was able to look at it so that he may continue his intended storyline.
