Wow, that's really neat! Your family sounds great.
[He looks a little disappointed as he remembers his own family.]
My dad is just a normal human. He doesn't do anything special like your dad does. But he gives good piggyback rides! His name is...I think his name is just Dad because that's what I call him. Or maybe it's Sualtam because everyone calls me the son of Sualtam.
[He swims closer to the other boy and pulls himself half way onto the shore.]
Oh! I've also got a bunch of foster fathers and an uncle. And three really, really tall cousins! They're all warriors of the Red Branch and my uncle is a king! He has a really nice chariot and he always teaches me the best things. And Papa Fergus is really big and strong. Stronger than even Uncle Conchobar. When I get old enough, he's gonna take me hunting!
[He takes time to catch his breath.]
And do you have pets? I have pets. Two ponies. They go fast. Papa Fergus says they'll go even faster than Uncle's horses when they're grown.
