[Dylan's physical changes aren't as lovely and dramatic as some. When he disembarks he gets just a basic set of gills and some blueish webbing to help him swim, nothing more. His Force Lance is all but useless under water, so his first order of business is to find a spear or harpoon which with to defend himself and his crewmates if necessary (although he hopes it won't become so).

Once that's accomplished, his goal is primarily to talk to the locals and to keep an eye on everyone who has disembarked from the Barge and make sure they stay safe. But he also sneaks a bit of time away to play at throwing a roundish piece of wood he found into a "goal" between two wooden stakes, like a variation on solitary water polo.]

Kal smiles when he returns the salute, not all the land dwellers were so quick to accept their costumes and habits.

"Redemption. So it does have a name, up until now I have just been calling it 'the newcomer's ship'." If Kal's face darkens ever so slightly at the mention of 'being off again', he does his best to mask it.

"And what is this... sport you were playing called?"

Dylan notices a slight shadow falling over Kal's expression. He wonders why, but since Kal was also clearly trying to keep it unnoticed, he's not going to pry just yet. It might be something sensitive.

"The game doesn't really have a name. I guess it's a little bit like modified water polo. Really modified. In the original version there would be two teams, and the goal you try to put the ball in is above water."

Kal looks up, pondering. Said 'water polo' seems like a fun game and he would like to play it by the original rules but seeing as how he's unable to breath air staying above water for that long is kind of impossible.

"Well... we can still have to teams, right? I'll be one, you'll be the other one. As long as you don't mind always winning... it is the first time I have played this game."

"I'm sure you'll pick it up quickly and will start winning in no time. I may have more experience, but you're a much better swimmer than I am."

He hands the make-shift ball to Kal.

"Probably the best way to start off is to trade off throwing and defending. I'll be in the defense position, so you try to make the goal and I'll try to stop you. Then after you do ten throws, we'll switch."

"We can do that!" He answers as he catches the ball, swimming away to get some head-start.

"I might swim fast but I'm sure you've got better aim."
