Elidibus knows what lions and tigers are. There's plenty of those scattered across the worlds he travelled before the Voidtrecker Express scooped him up. But he doesn't say anything for or against the zoo, nor correct Jake on the nature of his question; which was not so much interest as a clarification. He'd much rather see where this leads.
From misty fog around the platform to bustling, urban metropolis in a densely packed city. The Ascian... is given pause as they appear outside of the apartment building Jake shares with Amy.
It's not the cityscape precisely. Elidibus has seen grander, he's seen worse.. even in the modern era there was Garlemald's tall buildings and structures. Likewise to the technology present.
It is instead the sheer amount of people. Something which never could- was allowed to happen because of the necessity of the great work he and his brethren had executed through the millennia. Population control through waves of Calamity.
Diagad, the false city, had had something along this scale, but it hadn't been real; a series of blocks woven together with illusion and people from myriad realities stitched in to make a fit. Elidibus has seen that. In Jake's Brooklyn, everything is as it properly should be.
Jake might be walking and the people might be avoiding the Voidtrecker in their midst subconsciously without acknowledging the Ascian's existence, but Elidibus is standing still, letting those people stream around him as he observes. He doesn't seem lost or bewildered, exactly. But the sight has certainly left him momentarily without a response for the officer's question in light of more pressing interests.
