Tucked into one corner of the Syka Commons near a landscaped shrine dedicated to the Goddess of Life rises a bronze statue of a parrot. Larger than life and thrumming with innate power, the statue appeared on the cusp of the Winter of 2020. One day there was nothing there, the next the statue appeared.
Obviously a curiosity, rumor has it that Eywaat - a well known playful demigod - is responsible since he rules all bird and bird life alike. Being a somewhat a playful godling who is worshiped by a wide array of people, most religious scholars would not discount this rumor as untruth. A less ambitious deity he tends to helps floundering groups in inhospitable lands. It is not shocking that one of his more powerful icons could manifest here. He sees all his worshipers as his "nestlings" and commonly manifests in signs and dreams.
However, since the statue has appeared, Syka has been drastically altered in the form of its birdsong. The birds have been blessed so that in the boundaries of Syka all the birds that come and go, filling the jungle with song and sound, can also talk. Their language would be common and on par with their intelligence level so that small song birds might call out their intent in one or two-word phrases like... "juicy bugs!" while more intelligent birds like parrots could hold entire conversations or prattle on about whatever is on their minds.
This ability translates to Kelvics in their animal form as well so long as their animal form is that of a bird. Mages who have morphed into a bird form can also talk.
OOC: This blessing manifested due to a player granted wish.
