This was a fine way to spend their time, Théadan decided. Out on deck, quietly talking while enjoying the view of an ocean that seemingly had no end, cuddled up close together to help keep each other warm, and completely free of any other troubles or concerns. There was no constant running from something, no need to hunt a meal, or make a fire, or hide their affections. For the entirety of their relationship there had been something or someone causing them grief, to be free of that was such a relief. Though he had been stuck down in the cabin, healing for a week, getting to have this serene quiet moment with Navia was what they should have always been able to have. This felt right.<br/><br/>With her nuzzled just beneath his chin, Théadan let out a contented sigh, he was quite happy to indulge in Navia's curious mind, she had so many questions for these new sights. She cuddled close, her arms squeezing him a little as though the answer would come forth all the sooner for it. He grinned as Navia continued with more questions, of the iceberg, the sea, the animals they might see out here. She had so much to ask, he wished he coukd answer them all, but sadly his own personal experience of the ocean was sorely lacking.<br/><br/>What Théadan did have was a knowledge of second hand information passed on to him by people he had previously met, and books he had read in the library at Nygaard. He decided to start with her first question, and work his way through. "How large?" His hand stroked the chairs of his chin, looking up to the second ocean of blue high above them as if it would bring back the memories, and it helped. "I've never seen for myself, but I've heard tales of these icebergs being larger than entire cities, islands even." He said, though he sounded a little dubious, finding it impossible to imagine. If they were far larger beneath, how deep would the ocean have to be? "I can't imagine it myself, but they come from a place where there is nothing but ice." Even further north than the icy wastes, he doubted many sailors dared make that journey. "I've not known my people to make use of these, they're too dangerous to approach by anything larger than a row boat. It's far easier to carve ice from the frozen wastes that to try and tame these beasts." The iceberg finally passed them by, and the ship continued its course unimpeded.<br/><br/>The question of what animals they might see here had Théadan wondering, struggling to recall the different types people saw. He could not remembee them all. "Animals can make those their home for a short while, flocks of birds that fly through the water instead of the sky, can often be found on these. As can seals who will often chase those birds for a meal." He had been told the birds name once, but could not remember, he recalled only seeing them once when he was a child, and laughing in hysterics at their silly waddle. "But no, these waters are not too cold for animals. In fact this ocean is home to the largest creatures you will ever lay your eyes on, I hear some are even larger than this boat we make our home." He said trying to sound ominous, wanting to make her a little nervous at the thought of such a creature, even though most were completely harmless towards humans. "Sadly I can not track such a beast like in the forest, I have no such talent for it out on the ocean." An idea came to mind though just as he pressed his lips down in to her dark hair to kiss the top of her head. "But perhaps our Captain may know where we might find these creatures. We should ask during dinner."
