Enkidu...That sure is a lot she doesn't understand, heaven? Gods? Onyankopon had mentioned that his people had a god, that their equivariant would be Ymir. But with what little she knew, it was just words. None of it made enough sense to her. The gods saw them as someone important? Either way, that meant very little to her. Nor did next part, to philosophical sounding.
"You're from the same place...?' Honestly, that explained a lot. But she focuses on Root once more.
Sorry, Mikasa, they are on a strange wavelength sometimes. Weird clay is weird.
"You mean Chaldea? Yes. But not all servants come from Chaldea. It is the place where our master has summoned us. For instance, Cu comes from a different time and place than I do. And Iskandar as well. We are all tied to the tales and stories that have shaped humanity."
And they get summoned by mages to fight Holy Grail wars.
"Hmmm, that is a good question. But I take it that if it has a mouth, it also has ears to hear."
Yeaaahhhh, she's just going to...Keep looking at that plant. Boy, that sure is a plant. The blink is definitely because of the sun in her eyes from being stood so close to the window and not her confusion at that.
Was...Were they saying they were a storybook character? But then the other part didn't make sense, she was just going to put that aside for now. Time for plants, she's nodding.
"It should do...But don't plants breathe through their leaves? ...But then it wouldn't need a mouth. And they eat through the roots too...."
Trying to put more human or monster anatomy on a plant was surprisingly difficult.
