Dolphins are known to be quite intelligent, with IQs between that of a typical bandearg and that of a human. We have conducted extensive testing and found that while they are capable of speech, it is difficult to capture nuances. While speaking in the present tense and even future tense have been possible, they seem to struggle with the past tense, confusing it with the theoretical.

Attempts to ask them about their culture have been more successful than expected, though much of it is yet to be deciphered. Asking them about their past only results in legends and stories, perhaps due to their primitive language and oral culture. They are remarkably consistent, claiming that they originated from the sky. This likely refers to some deity that they believe their species came from. They claim they were with humans during this occurrence, perhaps indicating that their deity created humans, as well. It could also suggest that they imagine their deity as a humanoid, though their lack of respect for researchers suggest that no reverence for our species exists.

We have been able to determine a consistent starting point for the species: the island of Atlantis. Scientific research shows that it is a central cultural hub, and all dolphins interviewed had spent time there on multiple occasions.
