1st Dive

[Cambot focuses in on a pointy-eared young man who clearly seems lost. Judging by the way he's looking around, he probably came from a situation where being off guard could get him hurt or worse. He can be heard grumbling under his breath a little bit, but he doesn't say anything clearly enough to be understood.

He hasn't noticed Cambot yet. Although the fact that Cambot is staying out of his line of sight doesn't help matters, but this gives anyone watching a good opportunity to make some observations, such as how he looks like he might be a warrior, if that ring mail is any indication.

Nope, he's not going to notice Cambot until it needs to let him know someone's talking to him through the network.]

[He feels a little dumb having to ask this, but what else can he do when he's never heard of either creature? Admittedly, some of the books in the library at the academy hold images of creatures whose names are in a language long forgotten and are spoken of as either mythical or extinct.]

This might be a stupid question, but what is a Cucco?

[solmidna]

It's a bird that's about twenty inches tall.

[Hopefully 'bird' will be enough to communicate things.]

[shortpants_knight]

[Twenty inches tall... He hadn't seen any birds that size or smaller until he'd finally visited the surface.]

So they're a relatively small birds. And these Oocca are Cucco sized birds with human heads?

[He's trying to wrap his brain around this mental image and kind of failing. But he sort of gets the point. These creatures live on the sky island Midna knows of and not humans. Either there's another large, liveable landmass in the sky that he doesn't know about or there's a very large gap between his time and hers. Both options are quite likely.]

[solmidna]

More or less. They can talk and seem about as smart as other races.

[That doesn't really speak well for other races, but then, this is the place that always needs a Link to save it.]

[shortpants_knight]

Really? Are they friendly?
