Tonbokiri comes across the scene and blinks, trying to take it in.

There is some colourful human-wolf-like creature holding down a chicken-like creature, and the sound... 'tink'? But the wolf-creature is obviously as proud as any dog that caught something for its master.

It gives Tonbokiri a start when it proudly announces that it found one! So this creature can speak. It reminds him a little of Konnosuke, so...
Well, why not go along with it?

"Ahh! I see! Nicely done, that's a good boy. The bird seems a bit angry at you though, so what are you going to do with it?"
