"Mmn. Could you use a spyglass from a safe distance to see if there are new structures?" the mermanta wondered aloud, putting an additional thought into words as they considered the dangers inherent in a personal visit to the perilous island. Only Remi and Ronin would know what had changed between their first visit and this one; no one else would be able to tell what had been part of the original and what was new construction or... whatever passed for change on this foreign skyshard.

A mostly rhetorical question, but he tilted his head curiously at the (former? Insert timeline uncertainty here) demigod who might know better than he did.
