Do you...

"Fancy yourself a teacher? Do you know of these vast concepts I fail to grasp?"
cocked it's head to the side and took a few unsteady steps from the protection of the trees. It had never before attempted to formally approach the other deer of the forest. It's interactions had been limited and it instead choose only to sit silently with the absent minded.
It could not explain the feelings behind the actions. Fear? No. There was no sense of dread nor foreboding. Hesitance? Yes. But what was this..just a word it thought. Feelings...how strange those were. ceased it's train of thought and stared only in the direction of the deer that inhabited this strange place. They seemed..intelligent in some ways. Maybe one of them would be able to better help it understand a concept. An idea. Maybe one of them would fancy themselves a teacher and take it on.
Tilted it's head towards the sky and let out a loud bellow to alert them of it's presence.
What is love it wondered. What is good? What is bad? Why does it snow endlessly for days and then cease to be? Dark..it seems to have no coordination with the time. The twin gods..what were those? Lesser beings..greater beings..what even constituted a being? Was a tree a being?
So many questions. felt sick and stopped it's thoughts again. They could shed light on it. Well..if the deer were willing.

Yep, it's a role-play. If you think your deer has something worthwhile to teach Almos then go ahead. Feel free to take it in any direction you wish. He knows *nothing* really. It could be as simple as 'that is a bird' to 'this is the meaning of life'.
Just be warned:
He is very literal.
He does not understand lying.
He might just have more questions.
/tracking! I'll join, need to
Glad to hear. Feel free to
