In Oz, Animals could talk, but the Wizard was having them be caged and when that happened they lost the ability to talk. When I found this out, the Wizard wanted me to help him in continuing to do that. But I couldn't. Animals were the only people that never saw me as being weird because I was green. I stood up for what I believed was right, in keeping the Animals free. But no, you don't have to fear me burning anyone or hurting them.
