The young mage was holding back.
Given what had happened to Melita, Hadama could understand why, but he was not prepared to do the same. The Wild Thunder was a well-known name on Caido and a powerful Abandoned, and the Tidebreaker could not afford to bring less than his utmost to the fight.
If that meant taking shameless advantage of his connection to the sea, so be it.
The telekinesis had been used one too many times against the King, and this time he was ready for it, dropping into the water to let the shove pass harmlessly over him.
He rose to the voice of the referee calling the match and stood, dripping, as he digested the decision, before walking over to clap Sah on the shoulder. "Well done," he rumbled. He did not know the young man well enough to say more, so he instead went to make use of Isla's supply of healing water before going on to the next match of the day.
