A cat? Wow, they don't know much about land life at all! She arranged her thoughts, trying to think of a way to explain land life that would make sense to these creatures. I'm not a cat. Cats on land are like you. Sharp teeth, meat eaters. I don't eat meat. I'd be more like... She mentally ran through all the sea creatures she knew of. A manatee! I'm the land equivalent of a manatee. Except I run faster than manatees swim. More like a tuna or swordfish. Do they even know what running is? What I am is called a horse. But my own name is Zulimar. She nodded pleasantly to the beluga.

Abalar trotted up behind. "Truly, we are not cat's. We are, like Zulimar says, horses. Cats are more the sharks of land world. I am called Abalar." He then lowered his head, to greet the shark and beluga.

Tooth listened intently to the thing speak. So it wasn't a cat after all? Then what was it? Tooth began to wonder to himself as he half listened to the creature in front of him. She then explained what she would be if she was an ocean dweller. A manatee? That's what this thing would be then? Interesting...what did it eat then? There were no seaweed on land as far as Tooth could tell. And what was this mysterious run thing? She ran faster then she swam? Odd creature this thing is. A horse! She is a horse...what in the world is a horse. Tooth was just as confused as he had been just a few moments ago.
When he was about to speak, another 'horse' came swimming over to them. Really, did they all take swims like this? How come he never saw them before...of course he never really looked for things such as these to so that might explain it.
"Well Zulimar and Abalar, my name is tooth and you already know what I am. Now I will wait as my new friend introduces herself to you before...I ask a few more questions." "Like what is a run." Tooth finished in his head.

Siren listened as the two "horses" spoke. She was very curious about their world. What was life on land like, anyway? Zulimar and Abalar were talking about many things which she had never heard of. She wasn't even sure which question to ask first.
Siren kept her violet eyes on these two, strange creatures as Tooth introduced himself. They seemed friendly, but what if they had lied and they are actually were like land-sharks instead? What if they attack her? Tooth might protect her... She couldn't be sure. She had never met another shark like him. All others were driven by hunger and would attack if you gave them half a chance. What if these "horse" creatures were like that? Could you trust any lander walker for that matter?
When it came her turn to speak, the graceful white whale gave another nod of her head in greeting. "I am Siren. I'm a beluga whale." Realizing they might have already known, and not wanting to offend them, she quickly added, "just in case you didn't know." She paused a moment, then spoke again. "How do you know so much about creatures of the sea?" Truthfully, she felt a little stupid. Here these animals knew about both land and sea, and she and Tooth knew only about the sea....

Abalar unbowed his head. He glanced from shark to beluga. "To answer your question Siren, I cannot speak for Zulimar, only myself,but when I was younger, I had many river friends, who taught me about the water world.
I didn't seem fair to Abalar that he knew so much about their world, but they knew nothing about his.
"If you would like, I can answer any questions you have about us and our world, and Zulimar can always help too, is she so desires."
