[Prussia has a problem. Last time he was resurrected, it was while Hope was injured, and was pretty close in time to another time he'd died. Since he'd come back, he's only been able to communicate in is native language of German, despite the fact that he spoke many languages back home. It's seemed to have bypassed the natural translation going on in Hadriel, both in spoken and written form. Since it's easier for him to fix this than to get everyone here to learn German for his sake, it's time to swallow his considerable pride, and ask for help.
So, he turns to Tranquility, because he thinks whatever he might have to do to fix this, he'd probably make it the easiest on Prussia. Laziness wins again!
Now the tough part - communicating what he needs. Might as well try the simplest way for now. Maybe the gods can still understand him?]
Können Sie mich verstehen? (Can you understand me?)
[Exactly what Prussia thought! But something got scrambled with his translation, and he's very happy he doesn't have to explain himself through pictograms and charades with Tranquility.]
Oh, good, good! because most other people cannot right now. Not unless they speak my native tongue. This has been a problem since the last time I was, ah, brought back. [He really hates admitting he's died. And multiple times, too. But he hopes Tranquility will get the hint that this is a mistake made from too many resurrections.]
I was hoping maybe you could help me with this problem.
All right. How about this: help three different people out somehow. Normally I'd ask you to calm people down, but since you can't talk to anyone, that'd be tough. So just do whatever you can.

[They were never speaking English to begin with, so it's no big deal for Tranquility.]

[Whoops.]
I might be able to help you out. You just want to be able to communicate again, yeah?

[Prussia figures he is going to have to do something in turn favor, but he also doesn't want to be the one to bring it up.]
