"I don't really know where we got computers from, so."

"Maybe they were space aliens too, that wouldn't be terribly out of step with anything I've seen. It'd have to be different space aliens probably but who knows how many kinds there are."

He laughs a little. "We do probably have other continents. Somewhere. Maybe they've had books a sensible length of time."

"Could be! I should check them out. There's not significant intercontinental contact?"

"Not that I really know of?"

"Weird! Is it hard to build big boats or something?"

"Uh, I don't think exceptionally so? There's a lot of whirlpools some places but I don't think that's a huge deal with ships..."

"They could be, depending how many is a lot and how many places is some places."

"Dunno. Maybe one of the Snow people would know? Or could you conjure this planet and like see if there's signs of advanced technology places?"

"Signs of advanced technology I can see on a desk-ornament-sized ball? I doubt that. The most obvious sign from space is lights at night and that won't replicate downscaled."

"Ah, okay. Don't really know how it works."

"Here's my Earth at night." He pulls up a picture of Eurasia and Africa, glittering.

"Oh, it's pretty. So those lights are all from people?"

"Individual people do not glow, but the lights are cities, yeah, full of electric lights."

"Figured. There's a lot! Is there much like plain forests?"

"Some but fewer than you probably have around here. People keep wanting to live there. They're making a comeback since people've been colonizing the Moon and Mars."

"I really like being around people but I think lots of places would look weird without a ton of nature..."

"There's parks and stuff, but it sounds like you wouldn't get along with a heavily urbanized population center." Cam flicks around in his photos and finds a drone's-eye-view picture of Tokyo.

"I think being around that many people'd be super nice? But - yeah it looks really weird with just metal and glass and concrete and stuff. 'Course, the Leaf's half trees, or grown buildings."

"Ooh, grown buildings! Demons can fake that but it's super hard to make a building legit grow."

"Yeah! The First Hokage grew the entire early village plus a bunch of stuff to expand into."

"That's really cool, I bet people get super into that as a civilian application."

"I think it's just a him thing, I haven't heard of anyone else with tree control? But maybe it'll be spreadable, who knows."

"Bloodline thing and then he didn't have kids?"

"Oh, he had at least one kid - Granny Tsunade's his granddaughter, though she hasn't had kids and her brother died young. Dunno why they didn't have the thing."
