Time passed so strangely the older one got. So much time had passed since Folus' time in Termina that the memories he held felt like a calling from a long, distant past. And yet, he had never really gotten the sense of what it was to be a Hyrulean. It was mostly due to the fact that he had spent the majority of his later years protecting and leading the Sacred Grove and its denizens. That left very little time to explore outside the wooden boundaries of the forest. Today was different, though - things had calmed down around the Sacred Grove lately and he felt that it would benefit him to do a bit of reconnaissance. He wondered what the world looked like to the other races; in his experience, Dekus were known to be short unless they were of royal stature. His little legs could only grant him so much distance in between steps! That was alright, though; he had Deku Flowers growing here and there so that he and his fellows could keep a watchful eye for intruders.
He lived in Hyrule for a long number of years at this point in his life. Yet his Terminian pride lingered on, even though he felt like his identity was shifting into something... else. Hyrulean? One independent thing that had no name? Nobody was to say at this point in time. He certainly didn't know, but that bothered him. It was uncertainty that nagged at him and angered him quicker than someone stepping out of line at a formal event. Folus would somehow get the answers to his own question, though he had no idea how that would be.
For now, he had to settle on roaming the surrounding area of the forest. With the whirling of the Deku Flower's leaves spinning rapidly, he buzzed patiently through the air around the Ordon settlement. He had heard whispers of the place while people were on trade routes (likely from Folus himself spying from the trees), as well as stories the Koroks would share of the 'big people in the treehouses.' So he would see it with his own eyes and gather intelligence, in addition to gaining a cultural understanding of who these people are.
