We've historically worked well beside Hylians—their ingenuity with our craftsmanship has served a communal good. If not for our... shared tragedy, I believe we'd be excellent neighbors.
Then besides the Hylians, there are the Rito, the Gerudo, and the Gorons. Rather than any quarrels, I'd say we're each a bit prone to isolation. [ which is why link has to go around helping them all versus any of the helping each other ] We could stand to work together more often, but we at least don't bother one another. It is a relative state of harmony, and in times of need we are allies. Why?
On Valisthea, though we are all human we are constantly at war or in conflict with our neighbours. I had thought it would be even more pronounced with societies of different races...
But perhaps it is simply humans that are the problem.
... You may have a point. Resources are scarce in Valisthea, and they grow only scarcer. Would that we could simply migrate to the water or take to the air.
[ he shakes his head, patting the hand on his shoulder ]
Regardless, I wish you and your people lasting peace, Prince Sidon. I am sure you will be able to reconcile your community with the Hylians.
[ he smiles, consoling. imagine... lacking resources. imagine having problems that aren't one guy/pig. ]
We will! [ this is non-optional. ] My dearest friend in the world is a Hylian! He's helped us immeasurably. My sister had fallen in love with a Hylian as well. [ SAME.. HYLIAN ] We are really not so different, and they've suffered losses greater than we have. They deserve our compassion, not grudges.

Before I answer... Is this bad blood between your Zora and the Hylians unusual? Do you not often quarrel with other races?

he grips his shoulder, sympathetic. constant war... ]
...It may be more a matter of resources. A rito has wings and a zora has gills—we can live in the air and sea without competition.
[ are there even things to eat on death mountain for races beyond gorons? and the gerudo have dealt with the desert better than any of them can. ]
Or that we share a common enemy? I doubt it is any inherent evil in humans. [ no he is wrong ]
