Nice to meet you Baylene! [Maria smiled politely. She would have held out a hand to shake, if Baylene had been small enough, so she instead offered a small wave. The question caused her to tilt her head in thought before she nodded.]

Yes, we know of you through the fossil record. Plants...insects...animals and landscapes - it's all recorded in stone and new ones are being discovered all the time! There are branches of Science that dedicate itself to studying how you lived. Your kind is remembered and loved.
