[Console | Video]

This is ridiculous!

[There is a small boy scowling up into the console's video feed with a highly offended expression on his face. Not that it was easy to see that much. Even standing on a stool he is barely tall enough to reach the console.]

There can't be a turtle that big. If it was real it would be completely violating the square-cube law. Even presuming that it was possible for a turtle to grow this big, a biological creature cannot scale up like this. The larger an animal grows, the less its proportional muscle strength. According to that law, this turtle shouldn't even be able to move and there should be severe problems with its cardiovascular and respiratory functions. Even if we factor in the exception for buoyancy in sea creatures, this is still far too big. How is it possible for this to exist?

[Belatedly, he realizes that had been just a tiny bit advanced for an ordinary seven-year-old. He hastily pastes on a bright childish smile.]

I saw a program about it on television once! It was really interesting.

Those are always better in my opinion. We have a big library here, you could check if they have his books.

[spoilsfun]

Really? Where is the library?

[Conan may disappear into it for a few weeks. ]

[aprettyflyboy]

In the Sky Sector. It's now a building of its own in the park, next to the gardens and all that is left of the Palace of Landed Sky. There's also a College, they safeguard the library, but you are free to visits both places as much as you want.

[Have fun, boy!]

[If it has a mystery section, he will find it. ]

Thanks! I think I'm going to go look for it now.

[aprettyflyboy]

Have fun there. The Sky sector is mostly safe but I can't say the same for the other, be careful.
