"My grandmother was friends with the royal family. I dunno how that came about, but I've known them since I was four. Dorephan and Mipha were the ones that taught me to swim." He paused. "Or tried. I never was good at it."
He smiled, sitting back in his chair and crossing his arms. "I was Mipha's first test subject with using her magic on a Hylian. I was a reckless little kid. When Marin and I went with Grandma to see them when Sidon was hatched, I went in with a black eye and a nose that had damn near busted because of Marin. After she saw Mipha's magic, she threatened to give me another black eye just so she could see it again. I told her it was her turn to get a black eye, she gave me enough bruises to last me a life time."
