It was hard not to be curious when everything was so new. Dutiron had a lot to learn about the world and though young, he knew that fact and was determined to learn as much as he could. Of course realistically that would take quite a long time, though he had no idea how long it could possibly take to be as wise as some of the grown-ups he knew, clearly he was already determined to start catching up to them.
He listened once more as Novel explained what a waterfall was. It still wasn't something he fully understood, nor did the boy knew what a stream was but he certainly wanted to. A lot of the things his sister said were quite foreign to the boy, though he kept calm despite the lack of knowledge and simply gave a nod of his head. It could go on all day if he kept asking what every other word Novel said meant and she had moved on now to explain swimming. Streams were apparently for swimming, though he had to be careful with them. He had no idea what drowning was, only that it seemed to be very bad. "I don't want to drown do I" He concluded, his tone mimicking Novel's seriousness for a a moment.
"No swimming now. What can I do?" Though he was glad for his sister's company he still wasn't quite sure what to do for now. He had brightened a little more now, moving away from the bad topic of drowning.
