With his crew back together and with plenty of supplies to keep them busy, Hadama was well set to begin repairs to the docks in earnest. The king split his forces, sending most of his Mer, Attuned with stronger aquatic shifts, and Abandoned with earth magic to begin sinking pilings for the sturdier docks. Those less suited to working underwater were given the task of building out the dock frames between the pilings, forming sturdy, flexible supports for the planks they would eventually lay on top.
The mermanta himself focused most of his time below the waves, using his stronger water magic to sink pilings faster and lending the magic of his Staer ring to the Abandoned earth manipulators who helped to keep the sand out of the way while they dug down into the sea floor. As each piling was sunk he returned to the surface to check on the progress of the framing crew as they moved along and built the trusses that they could use to stand on and build out the next section.
It was hot work, but the water was a comfortable temperature for Mer, human, and Ancient alike, and he made sure there was plenty of fresh water for his team to drink so they would stay hydrated.
Hadama keeps working on the docks, dividing his NPCs into an underwater team to sink pilings and an abovewater team to build the framing and supports between the columns.
