['Partners don't keep secrets. Shouldn't we know more about each other?']
[Palmon had said as much to him early last month, but in the immediately following confusion of her turning into Yokomon. It wasn't so much that he didn't want to talk or even confide in others if he could, but given the sudden circumstances of being shoved into this world he'd been hesitant to speak up or even really get to know the strangers pushed into the same situation. But today Waver felt a little more talkative for some odd reasonlike an event or something, go figure and his partner was right, wasn't she? They should've been able to trust each other if nobody else.]
[So he'd offered to tell his partner a story. She'd been playing around with the D-Terminal at the time, and asked to record it--why not, really? Waver didn't have anything to hide.]
I've never really done this sort of thing before, but I guess if you want to hear it I can try.
Sure I do, Waver! It's about time you actually started talking to me, so I'll listen.
Well...once there was a king of a place called Macedonia. He was loud, overbearing, impulsive, and stubborn, but incredibly popular. In fact, he had an entire army of devoted followers that looked up to him.
Sounds like kind of a pain in the neck. How'd he get that many people to like him?
It's a little hard to describe. I guess...he was like a force of nature in that he absolutely refused to compromise or give an inch of ground to anyone else, but at the same time managed to be more human than anyone. Since he was the king he made sure to want, feel, and even dream more than any of his subjects. He wanted to conquer the world, and for the time he lived in, he practically did. But it was never really enough; he dreamed of finding the ocean at the ends of the world--Ōkeanós--and his army shared that dream.
[Palmon had fallen mostly silent, listening to the revering tone Waver had adopted. It wasn't one she had yet heard from her partner, and she wasn't even sure what to think. After a pause she ashed hesitantly:]
Did they...ever find it?
[Waver didn't answer for a moment; the silence that fell was a heavy one that gave the question it followed some considerable significance.]
Was he a friend of yours or something? You sound kind of-...
...Not quite; it was more than just friendship. Ride- [A pause, as thought he'd tripped over the word.] --Iskander is my king, and I'm his follower. I want to reach that shoreline he dreamed of...I want to be able to live to the fullest as he did. I don't know if I can, but I could never call myself his follower at all if..i-if I didn't try.
Waver? Are you...
I'm not crying, don't be stupid.
I didn't even ask that yet.
W-well I'm not, so forget about asking!
[And there he was right back to the weird, overreacting Waver his partner knew. Still, the open display of emotion and reminiscence struck the plant Digimon as something very unusual and even a little concerning.]

[ Since she can summon a Chinese goddess and defeat shadows. She can't say that she had done a lot of talking to her though, since she could only pretty much summon her when they were in a pinch and they couldn't really talk then.
Could they talk? ]

I don't really know what we're called exactly. The summoning just ... sort of happens.

We haven't figured out that part of the mystery yet.
