The white rat spoke to Reo. "It is that which spreads, from the Crater. Many-many things it changes. Plants, animals, goblins, ogres, trolls. Many-many things."

"Great-great lights were spotted in the north. Only one fell south, though. Went from big light to big-big light. Then turned down, sharp." The nezumi made a gesturing of a diagonal line curving suddenly down in an arc. "Hit big-big center city. Many met Tomorrow. Chief of chiefs. Great stick hall. Much-much lost. Sent many-many rocks through sky, landed many places. Left big-big hole - the Crater. Green light at the center. From there, worse things come. Big scary spirits emerged. Goblins and ogres and trolls change. Many-many more meet Tomorrow following."

"What have your people learned of these spirits that have emerged?" Jin, of course, focused on the threats more in his wheelhouse first.

"Creatures of the crater. Maybe from place in hole," they explained. "Very big, very dangerous. Interested in Name, but ours is too strong." They eyed Jin carefully. "Can be tricky. Mind your Name. Human Name weak."

A slight darkness takes Jin's face for a moment, "Well they'd starve themselves there at least when it comes to me." He shakes his head then nods, "Another of your kind mentioned magic based on names. Do you have a way to..." He grasped at the right idea, "protect names? So that these spirits could not impact them."

"Spirit-sick. Good word." The rat things didn't speak properly, but that meant fewer words. That was fine by Reo.
Maybe it will catch on.
"How?" Reo mimes the hand puppet gesture. "Body? Mind?" He pantomimes someone controlling the puppet.
"Way to cure?"

"Ogres get..." They gestured up. "Big-big. More violent. No talk, no think. Just attack-attack. Goblins always stupid, but they turn against us and spread spirit-sick."
"Both. The ones south, they get sick quickly. Hard to tell signals. Up here... notice they sleep-scream. Look behind all day." She mimed looking over her shoulder. "Then attack. Run or get killed. Run south."

"it get worse in South? Deeper you get?"
The rat person was surprisingly helpful. Nightmares and erratic and nervous behavior would be an early sign.

Reo pulls out a finger of Jade that Reiko had helped him obtain.
"How it detecc? Wear away?"
It was a terrifying thought that there was no cure, especially after getting so close to a creature.

Jin nods at the words, though he wasn't so certain there wasn't an intelligence at play, leading a foe to underestimate you was a wise tactical decision in itself.
"We call on the spirits of the elements, you call upon names, have any of the sick shown a magic of their own we should prepare against?"
