Slime the Dice

[Polyedit2000]

In an attempt to read the slime, Dawn could feel it react to her probe before it tugs experimentally at her mana.  She's reminded of the time the slimes had cocooned her...though it feels like she's being probed in return.  Thankfully, the slime released her probe and that feeling went, but it was enough to form a conclusion:

With mana came bits of memories, usually too small to notice any change in behavior.  This slime must have drank mana from so many encounters that the memories built up, enough for the slime to at least learn how to talk.

"Do you think me evil because I speak not like the others?  Because I am not like those you treat as evil to be removed?"  The slime asked after some silence.
