"Most excellent," replied Federico. Quickly, he wondered what a soquili who had never seen the ocean would find most interesting. "The first thing, you see, the reason why we can be so near to each other right now is the tides." He nodded in mock-seriousness.
"Right now, it is high tide. That means the water is high and deep, so I can come closer to shore. When it is low tide, the water pulls back and the beach gets wider." Someone had once told him it was the moon that did this, but Federico didn't know that he believed it. The moon moved so slowly, but the tides changed much faster.
