At first his voice sounds like it's under water, but after about a minute, he's able to replicate the voice of any human or animal currently holding water in their bodies, and in turn able to understand what they want to tell him.
If he spends a considerable time on talking to someone, he might be able to store their language in a small silvery pearl behind his mouth, being able to access the language at any time.

Oleg has stood where lesser men falter — amidst blood, screams, and chaos. A surgeon by trade, a survivor by necessity, he’s trained his mind to cut through terror as deftly as his scalpel through flesh.

Fatigue, pain, and looming violence are reduced to background noise; his focus remains razor-sharp, his hands steady. Every heartbeat counts, every decision is a lifeline.
