I have come to the end of my tale, dear friend. But I can see that you are confused, how does this concern me? You say, how does it answer my questions about you? Well, my dear. I am descended from Àdìo, the little boy in my story. He is my great, great-and a million more greats-grandfather. I do not know, neither can I explain how it happened, but a little bit of Àwèlé's gift was passed down through generations. They varied and sometimes they were hard to control, but we all had a little bit in us. This is why a lot of people fear us, because not everyone will use their gifts for good. But we always have,and always will.
But I ask of you, this story should only be within our family. But I have broken the rules by telling you. Please refrain from telling anyone. I have told you this story because you saw me wake that dead bird. I did not mean to do it, you see, but I felt my self being drawn to it. I couldn't help myself. I.. I can heal the sick.
There! I've told you all my secrets now. It's left to you to keep it.

There's no need to say anything, I know you need to get your thoughts together. I will see you tomorrow, my mother wants me at home early today.

I...I hope this does not affect our friendship. I really don't want us to stop being friends.

Well, I will see you tomorrow then. Maybe I'll tell you another story. Who knows?

Goodbye friend.
I hope I have earned the privilege  of your time.
