"I don't think so, not really. I mean, hatchlings learn how to walk after a while by watching everyone else. I don't know if you call that teaching." Kaleeth responded. She put her arm around Janius as well and continued to watch Leaps snapping at the flies above him. "I guess wamasu are more...independent than our hatchlings. It is doing a lot for only being a few days old. I wonder why that is? Is it the same for humans, do your hatchlings...or, well, I guess you don't have eggs so...younglings? Do they take a long time to learn to do anything?"
After a few moments, Kaleeth swam over near the edge of the river and sat down in the water next to the riverbank. She leaned back so that her head was just above the surface and closed her eyes a moment to relax. Of course, it was inevitable that Leaps decided to swim over to her, climb on her head, and use that as a springboard to jump at the fleshflies. Her head was pushed under the water for a few seconds, after which she slowly raised back up and let out a sigh, expecting Janius to be laughing.
Meesei gave a light chuckle. "The Hist are...not so easy to understand. Even the most educated, experienced Treeminder cannot fathom their existence. However, we do generally think of them as benevolent. The Hist have always led the Argonian people in ways that work to our benefit, and keep us out of conflict if at all possible. I admit, I have never heard of the Hist encouraging an Argonian to leave their influence, but that does not mean it is not possible. It could be that they disapprove, but even if they do, it would not change anything about my choices. I may respect the Hist greatly, but my love for my family, all of you, supersedes anything else."
