You can verbally communicate with beasts for the duration. This allows beasts to answer questions you pose; at minimum, a beast can inform you about whatever it can perceive or has perceived within the past day, including nearby locations and monsters.
The knowledge, awareness, and personality of a beast is limited by its intelligence, but you may deceive, intimidate, persuade, or otherwise influence a beast at the GM’s discretion. A creature is under no compulsion to answer (or answer truthfully) if you are hostile to it, or it recognizes you as an enemy.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you imbue plants with limited sentience, allowing you to communicate with them like beasts. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you imbue plants with limited animation, allowing them to freely move branches, tendrils, and stalks. You can command plants to release a restrained creature, to turn ordinary terrain into difficult terrain (or the opposite), or to perform other tasks at the GM’s discretion.
