Are there any helpful creatures (fey, treants, dryads. unicorns etc.)  or normal wildlife that we can talk to through a speak with animal spell (assume one of the rangers or bards has it or maybe the staff. I don't have it.)


You assume not based on the spell and Yes to the normal wildlife.

Does the commune tell us if these creatures here are unnatural since they were likely taken from different worlds?

Only if they are inhabiting an area here that is wildly different from the terrain they are from on the other world.

This is only helpful if someone has speak with animal.  Can it point out areas of different animals groups so we can talk to something more intelligent (Crow, Raven, Wolf, Squirrel etc.)

The spell cab do that, but you'd have to specifically choose that at casting.  You can only get so much information each castibg.

It can put people under care as per the heal skill.

Yes

we should tell the GnomtherShip

* a description of the zones and what is in them.
* where we are heading
* ask them if they can fly over the trash areas and spot ( someone there has a telescope ) and see if they can see what the trash monsters are.

Ugh. How far away is the trash chute we want to use for access to the castle?

Enzo can go do some recon via shapeshifter if it’s not too far away.
