Excellent choice! There are few sights more heroic than a red-lined cape billowing majestically in the breeze.
...Just one thing? Oh man... no wait, wait, I've got it. I'd ask him to teach me all his most powerful ancient sword techniques! The ones with which he bested Medeus! Who better to carry on that legacy than his own descendant, right?
My friend Hikaru's cape is entirely red, and she looks quite stunning in it. [Also, adorable.]
I'm sure Sir Marth would be happy to pass his wisdom along to his legendary descendant. [She taps her finger on her chin.] You may even meet him--I've met people from the history of my own country, so time is clearly not a barrier.
A Mashin is an ancient guardian spirit, that takes the form of--[does he understand 'giant robot?' No, probably not.] a great armored being, as tall as a tower, which we fight inside.
Have they invented electricity and computers in your world?
You fight inside the spirit? And... it moves around, even though it's huge? That's so AWESOME! Hey, if the Outrealm Gate ever takes me to your world, do you think I could meet one? And... maybe try it out? Just for a bit! I'd be careful!
I don't know what 'electricity' or 'computers' are, soooooo... I'm mostly positive we haven't. Are they some powerful new kind of magic or something?
Alas, the Mashin have departed from Cephiro--I'm not sure you could ride inside, since they bonded with us specifically, but I would have certainly let you ride in Windam's hand.
Um... a little? They would seem like it, but it's taken from natural forces. Essentially, we use machines to generate lightning to power other machines. [So apparently Akaneia hasn't advanced very far, technologically.] What do you like most about the tree, Sir Owain?
[He tries not to look too disappointed.] ...Ah. Well, mayhap my endless heroic wayfaring will lead me to whatever realm these spirits departed for, someday.
[Hey they're figuring out that the planet revolves around the sun, they're getting there.] Lightning-powered machines... impressive! So are they kind of like ballistae? [He is imagining a big wooden contraption shooting lightning bolts at far-off enemies.]
And what I like most about the tree is the wings, of course! Truly, 'tis a grave injustice that I was not born a Manakete--I was destined to soar gracefully through the open skies! What about you?
Life's important questions, according to Owain.
ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL
If you could meet Sir Marth, what would you ask him?

So what exactly is this Mashin thing, anyway?
