Dialogue
Greetings, I am a researcher from the Words of Mitron. I've dedicated my life to studying and creating aquatic life, but my main focus is the development of new shark species.
My latest creation has completed its round of observation at Anagnorisis, and will be released after one final test.
The thing is, I'm hoping to consult with a taxonomist before the Bureau of the Architect hands down its official registration.
...The same one who named my last shark, if I can—“speude bradeos” was such a marvelous name.
It turns out it's rather difficult to track down a specific person in a place such as this. Could you help me?
Thank you. Here, take this—it's a model of the previous creation I just mentioned. Whoever named it should hopefully be able to recognize it.
Show the shark to as many people as you can. Whoever recognizes it must be the one who named it.
Was there something I could help you with?
...Who named this species? I'm sorry but I haven't a clue. Certainly not me.
What have we here? A roaming familiar?
Ah, yes, the speude bradeos. I've heard of it before, but I'm afraid I don't know who named it...
What's that you have there...?
Oh, a speude bradeos! Of course I know it—I named it, after all!
Its creator was calling it a “cladoselache,” but I decided to go with something more closely tied to its distinct way of moving.
I wanted to really capture the image of it rushing forward with its tiny steps, somehow swift and slow at once.
In case you were curious, the name comes from a proverb meaning “more haste, less speed.”
And if the creator wishes me to name her newest creation, I would of course be honored to do so. It's in Anagnorisis, you say? I look forward to seeing it soon!
I honestly have no idea who gave that shark a name.
That creation is named so perfectly. If only I could come up with something so clever.
Oh, I can hardly wait to name this next shark creation!
Any luck finding my taxonomist?
You found him? And he's willing to give the new one a name, too? That is wonderful news!
This latest creation is actually a direct improvement over the last. I gave it more legs for a total of eight so it can move even more quickly over land.
With that taken care of, I need to hurry back to Anagnorisis. But before I go... Here. A token of my gratitude.
