While the cantrip cannot provide audible speech, an option allows a vague, incomprensibly sounding name being called out, over and over. This specific effect needn't be employed by the caster. The unpleasant sound of the groan can also entice animals of 1 to 2 intelligence to move 10 ft., or two combat hexes, from the point where the sound emanates after the cantrip is discharged.
