It mentions that it is a tiger, and Stardust committed this newly gained information to memory.
”A tiger…” she says gently, eyes flicking back up. The tingling on her paws was somewhat concerning, but it wasn’t painful enough yet. She listens as the tiger explains its kind, and she couldn’t help but wonder why she had never seen one before. And color? ”Color? What is the normal color?” she asked curiously.
As it spoke of the water though, Stardust felt great concern. Plague? Afflictions? This place was just getting worse and worse. The wolf of night huffed with displeasure. ”What do you mean this land is plagued?” she asked, noticing that the foliage and such of the area was…perhaps not well. She hadn’t noticed due to the twilight nature of when she arrived, but she felt more uneasy. The tiger was then hovering’s face over the water, and Stardust gasped.
”Yo, what are you,” she dashes to the tiger’s side, attempting to shove her face into it’s shoulder to try and push it away from the water. ”You just said it is KILLER PLAGUE water! What are you doing?” she said desperately, feeling the tingle still remaining on her paws. ”You were RIGHT I feel it on my paws! You have a death wish for yourself???”
