Vertebrae had made sure to train Spineus in every single aspect from his childhood. Despite speaking in the human language, it was an entirely different sound that reached the ears of the civilians.
It was as though the artifacts were automatically translating every single word he said into the bone race's language, which the majority of the civilians would understand.
It was very clear that Vertebrae had thoroughly prepared for this event.

If it hadn't been clear before, it was now evident that they were here for Atticus.
