"What the hell has building sh*t on its back has anything to do with getting closer to it?"
[First of all, Cetus is a 'her' not an 'it'. Second of all, despite her monstrous appearance, she's quite fond of humans. That's why in order to get close to her, you'll have to get other people close to her. As that'll make her feel wanted and the fastest way to do gain traction would be to build things to attract people's attention here. You know like an amusement part or maybe something entirely different. It doesn't matter as long as people visit the island with good intentions.]
