She had an immense curiosity about life
It was a playful remark, but also a completely incorrect one. Delta wasn't one to usually correct others and act arrogant, but in this case she absolutely had a right to. "Seeing as it's our waters, nope. I am not far from home." All of the water was connected so it's kinda theirs. Kinda. She wasn't about to fight logistics and hopefully, this mysterious man wasn't going to find her father and ask the same question.
Watching the man with intensely wide eyes, Delta searched for any little action, any inclination that he may do something to her. The talk with Maru had certainly instilled a new sense of awareness. She was still going to explore, yes, but now she had to be careful. Far more careful. Still... her curiosity did get the better of her, which is why she remained there and chose to continue talking. "I cant blame you. I know sometimes I like to get away, find myself a nice place to relax. Away from the hustle and bustle... so I'd assume the same must be for you land-walkers... but I'd imagine it'd be even harder for you to catch a break." Which must be why he had to escape to the water, moving to her father's land to avoid the fellow walkers.
Was it too early to explain her motive? Most likely. "Like I said, most fishermen don't sail this far... so clearly you're here for a purpose, wanted to see what it was." There was clearly a hint of wonder in her voice, showing there was an a different motive, one that went unspoken for now.
