Besides his chatter and natural charm, Linos has one more defining trait — a boundless, almost cosmic curiosity, especially for the world of those who walk on land. His fascination is not scientific; rather, he longs to discover everything about the human world, all the more so because D’Alinte itself is only a reflection of countless cultures gathered in one place. Yet D’Alinte is just a copy of a vast world Linos dreams of exploring. Since he cannot walk the earth, he learns about humans beneath the waves instead.
In rusted chests and sunken trunks he finds endless wonders — trinkets, treasures, and, most enchanting of all, clothes. For those who live underwater, garments are unnecessary, but Linos delights in seeing himself adorned in shimmering, colorful fabrics. Of course, most of what he salvages is ruined beyond use… and that is when Stefan comes in. Whenever he has a spare moment, Stefan sews clothes for Linos. He doesn’t even need measurements — his eye is flawless.
