The request of Dolphinlaugh,
a Sea Elf of the Realms,
to his liege-lord Greysea
I saw the most wondrous thing the last time I was on the surface of our world. A great ray, like those ridden by the locothah, sailed through the sky above me, as if it had leapt from the ocean of one world to the skies of another. it spiraled by me as it sailed, and I had a close look at it.
It was gargantuan, obvious from the mannish city that was built on its back. Its belly was white, and the back of violet of the coral bank. Great amber stripes laced its dorsal wings.
I was amazed by its size and its grace, which I alone saw from my watery hiding place. What sea spawned this leviathan, and what manner of elves tamed such a creature, I cannot know but wish to find out. I wish to pass into the waterless lands to discover how to commune with such a creature....
