"OK!" he suddenly found himself just about shouting. And spilling his moss. Which he had indeed been hanging onto all the while. "You are right. That's true!

Most would probably get an Aqua to help you stay in your element, because that's easier, but we could get a Lith! And the Lith could try putting more earth into you. And maybe you'd become amphibious! And that would be COOL!"
