Espi nodded at Aster to then communicate with those snakes, which after exchanging hisses between each other, answered to the little wyrm's question.
"Hissss", Espi turned to see Aster and then gave Aster an interesting answer.
Apparently, the snakes didn't know what the animals they have seen are called like, so they simply gave descriptions of them, which shouldn't be the case.
All the information about a spirit beast's race is transmitted through their blood, to their descendants, that's why even a distant relative can evolve into a higher ranked race through cultivation.
At this point, the race to which the striped wood snakes in front of Aster, belonged, should have gathered information about other animals, and thus they should at least know what they are called.
