Ohhh, he probably means polar bears. Clearly Sakura is not destined for life as a marine biologist, but then again, the nature of the bears in this world has her a little off-kilter.

"I don't know," she admits. "Everyone seems nice so far."

She genuinely couldn't say that the natives gave her a bad or dangerous impression, at least so far. They were welcoming. But... it was more...

"I think it's that I'm not sure what we're being trained for."

What the interest in them, as Otherworlders, was. Just to help with the wildlife in this world? Maybe her instincts were wrong, and she wouldn't claim to be an expert in matters of this nature, but she really felt the sense that there would be More coming, and it might indeed involve dangers. And the natives, as nice as they were, did keep cryptically talking about "finding your own answers" and the challenges ahead and so on.

She uses the opportunity of the Sea Bear's distraction to push through towards the cave ahead of them. It was certainly a strange feeling, navigating water in this manner.

"This 'Greater Rune' for example..." She had some not not-so-great experiences with certain "greater" things, so that sounded, while possibly encouraging, also possibly a little on the ominous side. But Sakura has her sights set on the cave, if Emet-Selch wants to come back to the jelly later -- she's still seeking the Rune, if he wants to come along and lay claim to it with her.
