How very wise of him. A lie is a poor foundation to build new bridges on.

Urbosa nods briefly, taking a moment to flesh out her map of Hyrule to encompass the other territories, accentuating the various major strongholds with symbols for each race.
BUCKLE IN, CHAMP. THERE'S A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER.

"There's the Gerudo, as we've already mentioned -" Tap tap tap goes the drawing stick on the Gerudo Desert, "Further north of us is Hebra. It's a mountainous region populated by the Rito, bird-folk known for their skill as archers in flight and beautiful singing voices."
She sketches out a rough approximation of the territory, with a little star where Rito Village would be.

"The Hylian race can be found just about anywhere, but in my time they lived here, in the plains region. Hyrule Castle was their capital for the royal family and commerce. They're similar in build to we Gerudo, but fairer of skin and much shorter in stature." Another little star, sketched in the dirt. "Northeast is Eldin; a volcanic region where the Goron have their forges. They're a hardy people with stony skin and muscle to spare, much larger than any other race. You'd be hard-pressed to find raw ore and jewels of similar quality to the material brought out of Goron mines."

"Finally, here-" One last sketch fills the southeast corner, broken into two parts. "-lies the regions of Lanayru and Necluda, respectively. The Zora populate the rivers and lakes of Lanaryu - skilled fishermen, unparalleled in wielding a spear both to hunt and in war, and exceptionally long-lived. Remind me to introduce you to two of them eventually."

Mipha first, since Sidon can be... a little overwhelming. He means well though!

"Necluda is the home of the Sheikah, which aside from their fair complexion and light hair can be mistaken for Hylian. Traditionally they protect the Hylian royal family as vassals, researchers, and bodyguards. In terms of covert warfare, they have no equal."

Of course there's the various monster folk and outliers like Koroks, but she's already dumping a lot of information on Axel. Better to let him process first.
