An Odd Question

From a purely practical standpoint, you live near a volcano, and it is getting colder. In all likelihood they are simple snakes seeking nearby shelter and warmth as to not die come the frost.

However if they start leaving messages with their tails or spewing acidic saliva then I might be inclined to suggest seeking metaphysical consultation.

Nalick,
I don't think they're that kind, but when I get a better look I'll let you know.

Captain Hayes,
I made one request that you had to neglect. I am somewhat surprised considering past interactions.

Ser Jack,
I suppose I live near enough to the volcano. Except they're following me around here.

Illana,

I have a knack for that... and it can't hurt to try. Seek me out at feast if its still an issue.

Caldor

I usually have drakes following me around....that's not unusual for me, though.
If Caldor is unavailable, I should be able to help you out with talking to them as well, particularly if they're being shy and won't allow you to approach.
Perhaps a silly question, but have you been able to ascertain that they're actual snakes, as opposed to some sort of illusion, divine manifestation, or something else weird?

If it has no limbs, don't trust it. If it has less limbs than you, don't trust it. If it has more limbs than you, don't trust it.

And probably don't trust it if it has the same number of limbs as you?
