Ezra nodded. Miss Zora was quite good at this game. This challenge was going to be quite difficult the longer it went on. "Alright, I am ready to guess again." The cat plush nodded, ready to go another round at playing "20 Questions."

This round, however, proved to be too difficult for the spirit, and after exhausting all twenty questions, they still had no idea what the object could be. They leaned back into Nyx, seemingly content with the defeat. "I surrender, Miss Zora. I have no idea what this item could possibly be. What is the answer?"

"It was fairly easy," Zora chuckled, thinking that sometimes the most simplest things were the hardest, "It's a candle," she told Ezra Salem.

"That was a good game by the way," Zora said as she grinned down at the cat puppet beside her. "Fun too." she added as her gaze moved up to slowly scan the water in front of them, watching as the sun glinted off the surface in places. "The water is so calm today. I love the ocean." she told Salem.

"Have you ever been, felt the sea?" Zora asked him curiously, wondering about the young spirit and his life.

"Oh, a candle. That is a rather simple answer."

The cat plush stared at Zora for a long moment, before shifting its gaze out to the sea. The sky was a nice blue, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore was serene and calm. Nyx seemed to shift slightly, glancing between Zora, Salem, and the ocean. The plush looked up and gave Nyx a simple pat on the leg. "I will be safe if you want to go see the water up close." The Regalia shared another glance at the waves, then shook her head and continued to pet the plush on the head.

"To answer your question, no, I have not. Prior to my arrival to the island, my homeland was surrounded by a thick forest. We had a lake, but nothing quite as large as this." Salem looked once more to the sea, watching the waves crash a few more times. "What do you like most about the sea, Miss Zora?"

Zora watched Nyx get up to check out the ocean, she could easily understand the regalia's fascination with it. They ocean also called to her, resonated with her, most waters did. Nature did if she thought about it.

"I can't really say, Ezra," Zora told the spirit quietly as she stared at the water before them, "maybe the vastness of it, the sound it makes, the way it crashes against the rocks, its immense strength, it's dark depths contrasted by the beauty of it as it reflects back the sun like a mirror..." she said thoughtfully.

"Sorry... I am rambling," Zora said sheepishly. "What do you think of the ocean?" she asked Ezra, interested in hearing somebody's else opinion of something she found fascinating.

"I find it to be a large expansive space of water."

The cat plush remained where it had been seated while the Regalia continued watching the ocean waves roll back and forth. "I suppose I can see why people can find it so beautiful and mysterious, but I find it fascinating in a more scientific sense. There are so many things we still do not know about what lies beneath the waves, and there are many interesting myths that can be pulled from as to what else is in the ocean."

Salem turned, once again watching the ocean with a blank stare. Hard to have any other kind of stare when your puppet was a cat plush with one facial position. Nyx quietly rose to her feet, giving the cat toy one last pat before making her way towards the edge of the water. Once close enough, she would rise into the air and move farther out, keeping the tips of her toes just out of the water.

"Do not worry about your rambling, Miss Zora. I find it to be a positive way to learn more about people as they talk. So feel free to continue conversation about any topic you wish."

Watching the ocean, seeing the waves, Zora knew what Ezra meant. There was a whole other world beneath the surface of the expanse of water before them. A world full of mystery.

"I am enjoying myself Ezra, would you be interested in another game of some sort? she asked him.


(Sorry, short)

"I would be interested, but I do not know many games, Miss Zora. I do enjoy our conversations, and I am quite content with just remaining calm. I would like to know more about you, though, if that is alright? Like I stated previously, the more I learn about you, the more I learn about people and how to assimilate appropriately in society."

The cat plush nodded, watching Nyx perform some kind of dance or odd movements on the ocean as they spoke. It was a curious sight, as the movements seemed uncoordinated yet beautiful and flowing at the same time.

"How long have you lived on the island, Miss Zora?"

"I am good with that," Zora stated when Ezra said he much rather preferred simple conversation to another game.

"Let's see, probably nine, maybe ten months now. Certainly no longer than a year," she replied trying to think when she first arrived on Manta Carlos.

"Oh, so you are not a long time resident, then." Ezra remained quiet for a moment, still watching Nyx dance on the water before speaking again. "Are you a human, Miss Zora? Or something more supernatural? I have been told it is alright to ask these questions as it is not generally seen as invasive, but I can guess that some would prefer to keep some things to themselves."

Nyx, meanwhile, had stopped dancing for a moment to examine a piece of kelp that had floated to the surface and was now being thrown towards shore by the waves. She knelt down to touch it, but the moment her hand felt the slimy coldness of the seaweed, she immediately recoiled and skipped away from it, content to find a new area above the waves to dance.

"No, not a long time resident.." she murmured agreeably as she looked to Salem and smiled at him fondly. When he asked if she were human or something supernatural, Zora took a moment to answer, considering her answer.

"I am a witch, not anything too weird about that, at least not here on the island," she said,"and yes, I am, or was human at one time, and I still guess you might say I am still human," she told Ezra a bit unsure, "But now I am immortal .. which I guess might be considered something supernatural."
