📋 About This Mod
This mod, and a collection of Aether's other mods are currently being maintained by Magnetuning (hi) and Aimryax! You can find a list of mods we're maintaining, and their Patch 8 update status here.
This mod is working with Patch 8!
DESCRIPTION
Grants your party an always prepared, ritual version of Speak With Animals.
The spell itself is a vanilla version of the spell already in the game, and the mod only grants it to the active party, it does not modify how Speak With Animals works in any way. If you would like to tweak the functionality of the spell, feel free to use Spells Enhanced - Speak with Animals or a similar mod in conjunction with this one. I have personally verified that they work together.
The ability will be available to the player character and their party members as soon as you load into the game.

- Zero hassle: no spell prep, no slot juggling, just talk to animals from the start.

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in October 2023 — may be out of sync with the latest game patches.
