Hadama inclined his head in silent agreement and then withdrew to give the young woman privacy for her prayers. He walked down the steps of the lighthouse, for though he could have teleported to its base he still needed the practice of stairs, which required a different sort of balance. At least it became easier each time, and it gave him time to think about who had just met.
He had gone to the edge of the island, letting his bare feet soak in the sea that washed upon the pebbly shore and looking up at the stars that now gleamed bright against the blackness, not even a hint of sunset remaining. The draconic rumble drew his attention swiftly, however, after the report of void dragons on Starfall.
The tension eased away as he saw that it was a companion to Safrin's daughter, and he offered Umbra a respectful nod as well before he answered. "Mmh. It is different." Leaving the water, he moved to stand near her so they could speak more comfortably. "Having legs more often than fins feels... strange. But the light..." He pressed a hand to his chest as his head lowered, eyes closing as his serene expression became even more peaceful. "It is both comfort and strength." A pause, and then he admitted. "Though I have much to learn about its use."
He raised his emerald eyes to meet Seren's, some of the peace fading once more to solemnity. "Have you returned to help against the void?"
