Indeed, Flora. There would be no Queens drowning on Hadama's watch. They were in this together now, and she would not get out of ruling that easily. Not if it meant he would have to go back to the days of doing all of the paperwork on his own, without someone to take half their share of Torchline's various complaints, suggestions, and petitions for royal intervention in petty personal squabbles.
He gave several moments of thoughtful consideration to being called a 'B team' member, but could not find any inaccuracy in it. "Mmh. It is the best we can do with our current strength," he admitted candidly, still working to regain his seat at the Big Kids table as he adapted to his demigodhood.
Hadama had apparently gained a reputation at some point, and while he was satisfied with the assumptions people tended to make based on it, he was not constrained by it. "It is unlikely," he agreed pragmatically with the assessment of the Doubletake and the Resurrected Sword. "When we finish our current quest we will need only one more task to cleanse Torchline fully." As much as it could be, given the presence of Starfall in its waters. "We cannot help another region until our own is safe." He submerged far enough to fully wet his hair and then slicked it back as he bobbed up again.
"Though if I were to choose a region to help, it would be the Greatwood. For the chance of finding Vi's Roses." And increasing their options for finding even more cleansing items... as difficult as the flowers were to come across.
